Hello, and thank you for your interest in our program! I am an Occupational Therapist working in two special education preschool classrooms that serve students with Autism and physical/developmental disabilities. Our program uses purposeful activities guided by a child's interest to enhance sensorimotor skill development. We provide fun and motivating activities that aim to provide a "just-right challenge" so that the child will develop the foundational skills necessary to successfully complete meaningful tasks. Research has shown that early intervention makes a significant difference for children with special needs. We need your help to acquire much-needed supplies and equipment to give our students opportunities to learn and grow. Our district includes lower income schools with limited resources, so your donation will make a huge difference for our students. Thank you for your consideration and support!
