This website is the official source for information regarding the fund established for former students at Glen Mills Schools under the settlement agreement between Chester County Intermediate Unit (CCIU) and plaintiffs in the federal class action lawsuit Derrick et al. v. Glen Mills Schools et al.

In January 2023, a settlement fund was established for former Glen Mills Schools students. Those who are eligible may receive cash payments, compensatory education services, or a combination of these remedies.

On this site you will find some questions and answers about the settlement fund and agreement, including information about eligibility, as well as background information about the Glen Mills Schools and the class action lawsuit.

Former students and their families who have additional questions or want to learn more about whether a former student is eligible for settlement funds created by the CCIU agreement may email Help@EducationFundforFormerGlenMillsStudents.org or leave a message on the Glen Mills Settlement Helpline at 267-515-6853.
