Their needs are more varied, and they often have co-existing diagnoses. We use an occupational therapy lens: holistic, developmentally based with an understanding of each child’s unique sensory and motor strengths and challenges, neurodiversity affirming, with use of meaningful occupations and necessary daily tasks equally important to the overall functioning of the individual.
