My Project

My name is Gillie and I am a school-based occupational therapist for Clarendon County School District. I serve a multitude of students with diagnoses ranging from Autism Spectrum Disorder, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome to Developmental Delay. Due to the nature of their disability, many of these students are learning appropriate strategies to self-regulate and communicate in order to participate across daily school environments. An adequately supplied sensory room would allow my students a fair opportunity to explore self regulation and sensory processing skills! Any donation will help and I thank you in advance for your consideration!

Mrs. Gillie Walker - Gamble Elementary School Grades PreK-2
