Sensory-friendly guide

to the west + far west suburbs of Chicago

This page was made possible through a collaboration with My Recess Therapy.
We focused our efforts to bring families in and around the Tri-Cities a resource guide to assist in the various needs and abilities of their children.  This inclusive guide will continue to grow and adapt as we learn of more resources to include! Please email any additions to Allison@thebranchmoms.com.
