Halloween costumes benefit patients in physical (PT) and occupational (OT) therapy by providing a fun and purposeful way to practice daily living activities, improve strength, dexterity, and balance, and engage in motivating, goal-oriented exercises.

Costumes can be adapted to include a variety of movements, from dressing and fine motor tasks to gait and core stability, while reducing inhibition and increasing patient participation!

We encourage all patients to wear in their Halloween costumes this week! 🎃✨

Autism is complex, and every child’s journey is unique. 💙 There isn’t one single cause or one single solution, but with understanding, resources, and support, children and families can thrive. Learn more from the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Today’s White House event on autism was filled with dangerous claims and misleading information that sends a confusing message to parents and expecting parents and does a disservice to autistic individuals.

We know autism is complex, highly variable and increasingly linked to genetics. Individualized plans, often involving a combination of developmental, behavioral, educational and social-relational strategies, can help improve outcomes that are meaningful to individuals and families. We also need and welcome additional investments in federally funded research to better support families of autistic children.

Families who have questions about their child’s medications, autism care plans or other health care should consult with their pediatrician or health care provider.

Children notice the little things 💛 A kind word, a moment of eye contact, or putting your phone aside can make a big impact. The everyday choices you make show them how much they matter. ✨

Such a helpful resource from New Hampshire Family Voices!

Maneuvering Through the Maze is a great guide for families navigating services and supports!

💚📚

Maneuvering Through the Maze
(FREE PDF Download, link below)

NH Family Voices is a non profit organization dedicated in its efforts to
address the informational and support needs of parents and
professionals seeking services for children with special challenges and
needs. As parents, our staff have also traveled through the maze of
services and programs designed to help our kids, so we understand the
issues that families face.
Maneuvering Through the Maze was originally produced in 1991. The
impetus for the guide was the 1989 passage of New Hampshire’s Family
Support legislation (SB 199-FN-A) and the need for families to receive
assistance with the coordination of community resources.
In 2001 NH Family Voices, with the support of the NH Developmental
Disabilities Council and The Disabilities Rights Center resurrected
‘Maneuvering’ and NHFV continues to do so as a tool for families and
professionals in finding resources throughout the state.
Maneuvering Through the Maze is formatted to take the reader from birth to adulthood with listings of state
health and human services agencies, educational resources, private associations and organizations that
serve people with physical, developmental, mental health and chronic health conditions and their families.
We have also added organizations and services that can be accessed by all state residents, such as housing,
childcare, etc. Programs should be contacted directly for more detailed information.

If you or someone you know has a child (ages 3–5) with mobility challenges...

We’re creating free, customized ride-on cars through the Go Baby Go program! These cars help kids move, play, and explore their world at no cost to families.

Each car is customized to meet the unique needs of the child, ensuring it’s just right for them. 💙

Go Baby Go is a national program that adapts ride-on toy cars to support young children with limited mobility giving them more independence.
