Sunshine School & Development Center For years, having a disability meant being labeled or underestimated for the rest of your life.

Serving NWA since 1958, Sunshine School & Development Center is shattering limitations to enable people touched by disability, serving their unique journey through advocacy, therapy, and education. In every space, individuals would be categorized, written off, or separated. Thankfully, Sunshine School & Development Center was founded with a commitment to seeing potential, not problems. Since 1958, Sunshine School has served thousands of people in the community by offering a range of services in order to benefit every child and client that we serve. Our mission is to shatter limitations to enable people touched by disability, serving their unique journey through advocacy, therapy, and education. Because of our work, families are better advocates, students aren't limited by their labels, and adults with disabilities thrive in their communities.

Thank you to the DDPA Arkansas - Developmental Disabilities Provider Association for bringing this Legislative Meet & Greet to Sunshine School and Development Center, and to State Representative Mindy McAlindon and Representative John Carr for taking the time to visit, tour our campus, and learn more about the children and families we serve.

Weโ€™re grateful for the opportunity to share our mission and give our guests a firsthand look at the advocacy, therapy, education, and family support that happen here every day.

Thank you for listening, asking thoughtful questions, and taking the time to better understand the needs of children with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families. We truly appreciate your time and your willingness to engage in these important conversations. ๐ŸŒป๐Ÿค
