Sensory Inclusive Community

We have free sensory bags available for families and individuals with autism. We hope this leads to working with a variety of businesses in the area to continue to make our local communities more sensory inclusive.

If you would like to inquire about getting a sensory bag contact us through email, Facebook, Twitter or our website!
