My Razzball commenter tag is BSA and my real name is Brian Armstrong. I have a vision of making a significant difference in the lives of children, adults who have health concerns, and the elderly who struggle with Alzheimer’s. I was a special education teacher until this past July and quit to make a bigger difference than possible in the classroom. We have started a company called Synergy Center Corporation, as well as a nonprofit called Sensations Charitable Foundation. The synergy of these two companies and individuals recruited to our cause will initially create programs aimed at increasing positive social interactions and opportunities for those children who struggle in getting along with others. We also will create a center (one for now) that will include an inclusive indoor playground (everyone will be able to use it regardless of ability or disabling condition-working with GA Tech to create a universally designed system), multisensory spaces for children and adults who need a relaxing environment rather than the craziness of an indoor playground, therapy rooms, and meeting spaces for parent workshops and sibling support groups. The technology we will include has been found effective in the recovery of stroke victims, even those who can only blink, and has a calming effect on those with Alzheimer’s, Intellectual Disabilities, Autism, and Attention Deficit among other conditions.
Please, blog, may I have some more?
