Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

I am a Pediatric Occupational Therapist currently working in a NYC DOE Title 1 Public School in Brooklyn, NY. The majority of the students I work with come from low-income homes. These students have a variety of abilities as well as disabilities including but not limited to Autism Spectrum Disorder, Learning Disabilities, Physcial Disabilities, Difficulties with Sensory Processing, etc. My students have a lot of challenges to overcome in addition to their disabilities. However, they are so motivated to make progress that they inspire me each and every day. Though it may be challenging at times, I love my job and I love my students.

My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students will help provide some sensory strategies for those students currently having difficulties regulating their sensory systems.

I am requesting items such as a weighted lap pad to help provide input when needed.

I am also requesting an iPad to help play soothing music, videos, and to be able to use some programs that also target sensory calming or sensory alerting strategies.

By helping these students regulate their sensory systems, they can be better able to access information presented to them using a variety of methods by their teachers, para-professionals and/or therapists. By donating to this project, you too can help these students with disabilities access their education alongside their peers more effectively.
