We hosted an amazing, educational event to discuss how to navigate speech and language services for children with disabilities, especially those in multilingual households! Our families learned about how to work within these systems and how to advocate for your child.

We invited the Acton Discovery Museum to visit us and discuss their programs and share fun, hands on activities for our families! Our children had a great time and our families even received one year of free membership to the museum.

SPACE’s new weekly play group initiative is designed to be fun, inclusive, and educational for the whole family! We’ve been providing children with a place to come play and have fun with their peers. We have lots of toys, games, and even a bouncy house.
