My Project

This project is to help empower special education students to regulate their emotions and make decisions independently.

As these students approach adulthood, they need as many tools in their toolbox as they can get.

Your donation will help the students to expand their knowledge and practiced learned skills in a safe and understanding environment.

I believe it is imperative that my students have access to as many resources as I can get my hands on, this project will help immensely in growing their abilities and their outlooks on the world around them.
