Early Intervention Program

Early treatment leads to a better outcome, We know 0-5 years of age is the prime stage of the development of our Sensory system. That’s why we designed a specialized program for toddlers where children get rapid sensory and functional changes in developmental milestones.

According to research, the preschool years are the most important for learning and development. Some children risk missing some of the most important learning and developmental milestones due to birth deficiencies, special needs, or developmental delays that occur in the early years. Early intervention keeps these children on track to make the most of the abilities and skills they develop during their early years

Our early education providers monitor five primary areas of development to devise an Early Intervention Program:

Cognitive – problem solving, critical thinking, sorting

Social-emotional – expressing emotions, interacting with others

Physical – crawling, walking, grasping, drawing

Communication – speaking, listening, and understanding

Self-help/adaptive – dressing, toileting, eating

A professionally qualified occupational therapist (OT) then devises a plan to provide sensory integration (SI) therapy. Through a thorough evaluation, the OT assesses whether your kid would benefit from SI therapy. The OT uses repetitive exercises to expose a child to sensory stimulation. SAND offers a three-hour comprehensive session focusing on all primary areas of development under the supervision of a specialist, therapist, and special educator.

We can address each student’s unique academic, physical, social, or emotional challenge and collaborate with you to help your student succeed academically.

Many of our students’ parents report that their children perform significantly better in our one-on-one program than in a traditional classroom setting. 

At Sand our one-on-one schooling program we,

  • Work at Your Child’s Pace

Adapting Alternative Instructional Approaches

Extracurricular Activities

Recreation is defined as activities and experiences that produce feelings of enjoyment and fulfillment. They provide opportunities for all of us to express our creativity, achieve our goals, and master new skills.

Recreation can be especially beneficial for people with autism, providing opportunities to practice social skills, increase physical aptitude, and increase motivation. These activities can lay the groundwork for your child’s increased self-confidence.

Individuals with autism can learn skills specific to a sport or activity by participating in recreational and leisure activities. More importantly, participation in these programs aids in the development of more general skills that can be applied in settings such as school and work. As a result, progress can be seen not only in the specific programs, but also in other areas of life.

Residential Care

Our residential facilities offer a one-of-a-kind residential treatment program for people aged 6 to 13 who have been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Residential programming, in collaboration with academic staff and goals, promotes the development of life skills, social skills, and overall communication. Improving outcomes in these areas leads to reunification with families, transitioning to a less restrictive setting, and living a more independent young adult life.

Our in-house residents live in safe, home-like environments with bedrooms that are designed and staffed to promote social, behavioral, communicative, functional, and academic growth. 

Our facilities include like skills training as well as,

  • Teaching kitchens for student participation in food preparation,
  • Multi-sensory rooms for relaxation,
  • Outdoor playgrounds for physical fitness,
  • Computer labs for technology integration.
