Our sensory rooms are thoughtfully designed inclusive play spaces, offering a safe, calming environment for individuals on the autism spectrum and those with sensory processing disorders. These rooms are equipped with sensory tools like weighted blankets, fidget toys, soft seating, noise-canceling headphones, and tactile sensory boards to help reduce overstimulation and foster relaxation. Whether you're attending a community event, a church service, or just need a quiet space to recharge, our sensory rooms provide the comfort and support necessary to fully participate.
More than just quiet spaces, our sensory rooms foster engagement and personal growth. For adults on the spectrum, these rooms offer a place to unwind and reflect, while for children, they provide opportunities to explore sensory activities. Compassionate Buddy volunteers are available to guide individuals through the space, ensuring comfort and safety. Some of our Buddies specialize in areas of interest, helping individuals discover and nurture their unique talents. All of this is guided by faith-based principles, promoting connection, comfort, and achievement in a supportive, inclusive environment.
Our sensory rooms are open to individuals with autism, sensory processing disorders, and anyone seeking a quiet, welcoming space. Families, friends, and caregivers are encouraged to visit and experience the benefits together. These rooms aren’t just retreats—they are community hubs where individuals can recharge, feel understood, and build meaningful connections.
If you're a church or organization looking to create a similar sensory environment, Faith on the Spectrum is here to help. We offer staff training, donate sensory tools, and provide ongoing support to help create inclusive spaces. Together, we can ensure that everyone—regardless of age or ability—feels comfortable, empowered, and part of a larger, welcoming community.
