Hi everyone! With the SNAP benefit suspension approaching, I've been thinking about our families with dietary restrictions and extreme sensory aversions. Many of our kiddos have extremely limited diets, and there is a high possibility these specifics may not be at other food banks in the area. I'm considering starting a food drive/family sponsorship opportunity for any of our families in the community that could use extra support.

If you are one of the families affected, consider filling out the form below. Your personal information will be kept private.

If you would like to sponsor a family in need of specific items, consider filling out the form below.

I'm just putting feelers out there at the moment, but I'd love to hear from you!! Or if you have any other information that you would like to share about resources regarding these specifics, please include them below. Depending on responses, we'll contact you in the coming week or so about our next steps.

Help us provide specific items to families with dietary or sensory restrictions after SNAP benefits are suspended. Your sponsorship ensures no one is left out!

- 🌿 Meet Our New Therapist! 🌿
We’re so excited to welcome Beth Strickland to the Rooted Occupational Therapy team! ✨

Outside of work, she’s married with 2 kids (a 13 year old boy on the autism spectrum and 11 year old girl), 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 1 turtle 🐶🐶🐱🐱🐢 — so she’s no stranger to a full (and lively!) house.

Happy "Meet the Team" Friday! First up will be our owner, Amber Beckloff. She has been practicing as a pediatric OT since 2018. She has a passion for affirming neurodivergence, sensory processing, regulation, and reflex integration.

She has a 2 year old son with her husband. She enjoys exercise and play as her primary method of regulation. Currently, yoga is her favorite! She brings joy, silliness, and acceptance to this space. She prays over this business earnestly and gives glory to God for every win, big or small.

Honored to be a part of this neurodiversity affirming school 🤍 we LOVE having the opportunity to serve these kiddos in house while also having availability for other kids in the community as well.
