My Project

Help me give my students weighted, pressure, sensory vests to help give them the proprioceptive and deep pressure input that their bodies seek.

My Project

I am asking for your donations to get 2 vests in sizes x-small and small to help support the sensory needs of my littlest students.

Weighted, pressure vests help provide my little students' bodies with coping chemicals like serotonin and dopamine which help them to feel safe and secure and more ready to learn from and interact with their school environment.

This is a small project, but I know it will have a huge impact!!
