Special Needs Resource Center

The Work and Play Special Needs Resource Center provides a central location for therapy, gatherings, and information for those with developmental disabilities of all ages and their caregivers.  Think of us as a hub for the special needs community. Having a resource center simplifies access to things needed to care for someone with developmental disabilities, which is desperately needed in an often complicated life with a child with special needs.
