There are many organizations with the name "Children's Institute". This appears to be one, but any Wikipedia listing should include the others.

One of the other organizations with this name is the Children's Institute, Inc., in Rochester, NY (http://www.childrensinstitute.net/). This organization is a 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit that is associated with the University of Rochester.

History of the Children's Institute, Inc., Rochester, NY

The Children's Institute began in the Department of Clinical Psychology at the University of Rochester as the Center for Community Study with one program – Primary Mental Health Project – which was developed to help children adjust to school. In 1970, they were incorporated as a not-for-profit organization, Primary Mental Health Project, Inc. Since then, their work has grown from one program to over 40 programs and services that are grounded in research and offer new and innovative solutions for challenges facing our children.

In 2000, they changed their name to Children’s Institute, Inc. Through sound research and evaluation and collaborative relationships with school districts, government and community partners, they continue to develop and promote effective prevention and early intervention programs, materials and best practices for children, families, schools and communities.

The Children's Institute → Spectrum360 – The school was renamed Academy360 in 2016 and is part of the Spectrum360 organization, which includes several programs: Academy360 Lower School (occupies the Verona campus), Academy360 Upper School, Independence360, CulinaryAcademy360 and FilmAcademy360. Would prefer entry to be Spectrum360, with the programs listed in the article, which I could edit/update, as much is out-of-date.

 * Support. I thought of relisting again as the sources given are all primary sources. We should have at least one recent secondary source. This was harder to find than I thought, the article certainly needs work, references and external links are mainly primary or broken. But I think https://homeroom5.doe.state.nj.us/apssd/results.php?cds_id=148389001 qualifies as secondary for the issue of the name, much of its content is primary but there is also some independent review which would include the name. I look forward to seeing the article rescoped and improved as proposed. Andrewa (talk) 20:36, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment. Move to Academy 360, and move the existing Academy 360 to Academy 360, Sunderland. In fact, I was a student in the YAP program, and I graduated in 2018. Neel.arunabh (talk) 05:12, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
