Weighted Vests
January 2020- Weighted vests are designed to support children with various sensory needs. The weight in specific parts of the vest help the children to calm down, focus and/or cope with sensory overload. Children with visual impairment can benefit greatly from wearing the vest during times of the day where focused learning is most important. Hope's Heart is honored to provide ten of these vest for some of the visually impaired children we support.
Importance of Education
January 2020-
Education is fundamental to every child's healthy development. We begin the new year with the sponsorship of nine children for their daily education development. These children all have some level of visual impairment. Specially trained teachers direct and encourage them in a focused atmosphere to provide them the greatest level of development. Introducing Kenny, Chandler, Alice, Georgie, Hayden, Hunter, Mathew, Callie
and Shirley.
May they have a happy and productive year.
February Update- Callie has been moved to another program designed to give her expanded opportunities for learning. We wish this precious girl all the best.
