✨ Staff Spotlight ✨

This week we’re celebrating Sara, one of our incredible BCBAs, who has been a valued part of our team for nearly five years!

Sara is known around the clinic for her playful personality and her natural ability to connect with kids. You’ll often find her on the floor joining in their games, laughing alongside them, and finding creative ways to make learning fun. She has a gift for making every child feel comfortable, valued, and excited to engage.

When asked what she loves most about being a BCBA, Sara shared that her favorite part is spending time with the kids and seeing them achieve their goals. She’s also a strong advocate for her clients’ needs and is always encouraging consistency across environments to ensure everyone on the team is working together to support each child’s growth.

Outside of work, Sara loves spending time with family and friends, being out on the lake or beach, and relaxing with puzzles or sewing projects.

We’re so grateful for the positive energy Sara brings to our team every day. If you see her around the clinic, be sure to say hello!

October is AAC Awareness Month, and we’re celebrating that communication is BOO-tiful! 👻

AAC, or Augmentative and Alternative Communication, includes all the ways people express their thoughts, needs, and ideas. This can be gestures, facial expressions, eye gaze, communication boards, or speech-generating devices. Some AAC systems are temporary, others are permanent, and they range from low-tech to high-tech options.

Whether a child is learning to communicate or an adult has lost their ability to speak, AAC helps bridge communication gaps and supports participation in everyday life.

Many apps are offering discounts on AAC products this October. For a list of apps on sale, scroll about halfway down this page: https://www.apraxia-kids.org/its-aac-awareness-month/.

Let’s spread the word and support everyone in finding their voice!

October is ADHD Awareness Month! 🧡

This word cloud beautifully represents the voices and experiences of individuals living with ADHD. It captures both the moments of joy and resilience, and the moments of challenge and growth, but most importantly, it reflects people living authentically and unapologetically.

It’s helpful to remember that ADHD is unique to each individual and can look different in every person, classroom, and workplace. This is why understanding and awareness are so essential within the neurodiverse community.

Join us in celebrating ADHD this month by wearing orange or sharing your story with others about what living with ADHD has meant to you!

This is amazing! Our community is lucky to have businesses like Arby’s supporting the special needs cause! 💛

Madison, the owner of Shining Star, has launched a non-profit called The Shining Star Project. Its mission is to support families with special needs by providing resources, activities, and opportunities for connection. The very first program is TEAM SPORTS, starting with basketball! This program is completely FREE for special needs families because we want every child to have the chance to participate. 🏀

The season begins on November 11th and will include four practices, followed by a special end-of-season showcase and party on December 13th. The location is still being finalized, but everyone who signs up will be notified right away once details are confirmed.

We’re so excited to begin this new adventure and watch our athletes shine! If you have a special needs child age 5 or older who would like to join, you can sign up using the QR code on the flyer or by emailing us at thessp2025@gmail.com.
