Creating Brighter Futures Through S.T.E.A.M. Activities and Therapy in Merrillville, IN
Empowering Kids Through S.T.E.A.M., Therapy, and Enrichment in Merrillville, IN
Self and S.T.E.A.M. Academy Inc. started in Merrillville, IN, with one big goal—to help kids become their best selves. We know that learning isn’t just about books and tests. Kids also need support, confidence, and a safe place to grow. That’s why we combine fun, hands-on learning with caring mental health services.
Our program is built around S.T.E.A.M.—which stands for science, technology, engineering, arts, and math. On Saturdays, kids can join us for field trips or fun activities at our center. Every activity is designed to help them explore new ideas, build skills, and discover what they love.
We also care deeply about how kids feel. That’s why we partner with Epiphany and Company Counseling Services to offer mental health support and therapy. Our trained team includes specialists and therapists who work with children of all ages, including those with developmental disabilities like autism. We create custom plans for each child so they get the help that’s right for them.
Join our next field trip—fun and learning await!
