Trumbull County Board of Developmental Disabilities

At Fairhaven, we have multiple types of gait trainers to help children achieve the maximum mobility possible. Like all children, children with developmental disabilities love to be active in gym or outside with friends. Seeing their hard work and progress is incredibly inspirational for everyone involved! #PhysicalTherapy #SeeTheAbilities #GaitTrainers #mobility #inclusion

Beginning in 1971, a U.S. District Court case in the District of Columbia, Mills v. Board of Education, ruled it unlawful to deny any child, including children with developmental disabilities, publicly funded educational opportunities. Today, we celebrate the opportunity to #SeeTheAbilities. Thank you to our amazing staff for your dedication to the exceptional individuals we serve. #NationalSpecialEducationDay #inclusion #diversity #communication #education

Isn't it wonderful when everything comes together? Puzzle play is a great technique in occupational therapy that helps children learn problem-solving and communication while improving fine motor skills and cognitive development. Our students love puzzle scavenger hunts for that extra bit of fun and engagement! #OccupationalTherapy #OT #PuzzlePlay #SeeTheAbilities
