Children with special needs, like all children, deserve a safe space to grow and develop. As the demand for purpose-built support for children with special needs has never been greater, this dedicated space will include soft play objects, lighting, sound and colour effects where sensory stimulation can be controlled and children can explore and interact without risk. A multi-sensory room will support children with autism, sensory impairments and/or other developmental disabilities in a specifically designed environment to learn and build confidence. It will be used in the delivery of one-on-one professional care services, as well as regular sessional programs.
A community based multi-sensory room in the northern suburbs will benefit Victorian families by filling what is currently a gaping hole in the special needs community. It will not only meet the therapeutic needs of children but will enable valuable respite time for parents, families and carers. Catering for people with a wide range of disabilities and impairments, the room will be open and available for use by all - regardless of race, religion, background or circumstance. This facility will foster a stronger sense of inclusion and support, bringing together those affected by special needs in a meaningful way.
