If you've been in our sensory room, you've probably spotted our favorite little friend, the Sensory Snail! 🐌💙

He may just be a soft plush, but he's become a source of comfort, confidence, and calm for so many of the individuals who use our space. Whether he's joining a quiet moment, offering a familiar face, or simply being there for a hug, our snail reminds us that even the smallest friends can make a big difference.
