Summary
The Legacy Foundation just dropped a massive $98,000 grant to build a revolutionary sensory room for kids with developmental disabilities in Barbados, partnering with the Rotary Club of Barbados South and the Albert Cecil Graham Development Centre. With therapy rooms currently overwhelmed and families waiting months, this new space will offer vital tools for regulation, communication, and growth — all before the new school term. It’s more than bricks and beams; it’s a beacon of hope for families and a powerful step toward true inclusion. Senator Lisa Cummins praised the initiative, calling it essential in a system stretched beyond capacity. By May, procurement will begin — and by September, kids will finally have access to the therapeutic environment they deserve. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
