The Multi Sensory Environment is a specialized space that lets you control and manipulate aspects of the world around you, including light, sound, smell, and touch. Research has shown the benefits of time spent in a Multi Sensory Environment for people with sensory processing deficiencies, including autism, intellectual and/or developmental disabilities, hearing and/or vision impairments, physical disabilities or limitations, learning disabilities, speech and/or language impairments, traumatic brain injuries, dementia, and more.

This room can be used along with a caregiver or service provider. It’s designed to stimulate the senses in new and exciting ways while promoting empowerment and freedom. The Multi Sensory Environment can be reserved in 30-minute increments, with a 15 minute clean up time automatically added onto the end of the reservation. Up to 4 reservations may be made a day.
