๐ง Big things are happening at UABL! ๐ง
After years of having a playground with limited shade and a space that didn't fully meet the needs of our learners, we are finally taking the first steps toward creating a sensory-friendly outdoor play area right in our own backyard... literally!
Today, our back fence went up, marking the beginning of an exciting transformation. We still have a little waiting to do for the side and front fencing, and fundraising efforts will continue to help make the rest of the vision a reality. Our hopes include a playground pad for tricycles, chalk activities, a playground structure, and other sensory-friendly features that will allow our learners to play, explore, and grow in a safe and engaging environment.
It's not finished yet, but today was a huge step forward. We are incredibly grateful for the support of our families, staff, donors, and community members who continue to help us move closer to this dream.
One fence at a time, we're building something special. ๐
