What will be done with my students

The primary purpose of this grant is to acquire supplies that will address sensory seeking behaviors and oral fixation needs among our clients. These supplies will be utilized in therapeutic settings, educational programs, and daily activities to help individuals self-regulate, improve concentration, and develop adaptive coping mechanisms. Students will have tool boxes with specific items designed to support their individual needs. 

 

Benefits to my students

Decreased chewing of non edible items and tools, increased ability to participate in noisy environments, improved ability to remain on task and improve educational participation  

 

Budget Narrative

Individual toolkits for students with sensory needs. Including a microwave cleaning bag for cleaning of toys and tools. Food exploration to increase tolerance for textures and tastes.
