NORTHERN VA. TR. CTR. E.P

Northern Va. Tr. Ctr. E.P is a public school that is part of the Northern Virginia Training Center school district, located in Fairfax, VA offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 12th Grade.

The facility located at 9901 Braddock Road in Fairfax, Virginia, is the **Northern Virginia Training Center (NVTC)**, which served as an Intermediate Care Facility for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Operated for decades by the Commonwealth of Virginia, the center provided residential care, medical services, and specialized training programs designed to support residents with significant support needs. It functioned as part of a state-wide network intended to provide institutionalized care in a clinical and structured environment.

In recent years, the role of the NVTC has undergone a significant transformation due to the Commonwealth’s move toward deinstitutionalization and the integration of individuals into community-based settings. As part of a federal settlement agreement (the Department of Justice settlement), Virginia began closing its large state-run training centers to transition residents into smaller, group-home environments that prioritize independent living and community inclusion. Consequently, the site at 9901 Braddock Road has been repurposed and phased out of its original capacity, reflecting a major shift in Virginia’s public policy regarding disability services and long-term care.
