Everyone experiences and responds to sensory environments differently. Understanding and responding to individual sensory needs is an important part of creating inclusive and welcoming spaces.
Join us for this practical workshop to explore how thoughtfully designed sensory rooms can support self-regulation, well-being, and meaningful participation across a variety of settings.
Participants will learn:
- The purpose and benefits of a sensory room
- How to select appropriate equipment and materials
- When, why, and how to use sensory spaces effectively
- Strategies for tailoring sensory supports to individual needs
Walk away with practical ideas and tools to create sensory-friendly environments that promote accessibility, inclusion, and belonging.
Special note for our community partners: Community partners planning to apply for a JAccess Large-Scale Grant to fund sensory spaces and/or sensory equipment are required to attend this training as part of the grant application process. This requirement helps ensure that sensory spaces and equipment are thoughtfully planned, appropriately selected, and used effectively to support individual needs, accessibility, and meaningful participation.
