Thank you for taking the time to read our e-newsletter!

The end of the year is full of both love and stress. Celebrating the holidays brings us all together, yet with children experiencing disabilities and/or special health care needs, you may also want or need support. In this email you will find articles about Holiday Survival and tips for families and loved ones. 


PAVE provides support, training, information, and resources to empower and give voice to individuals, youth and families impacted by disabilities.

That’s support to over 5,750 families & 1,710 youth, 165 trainings, AND 200 thousand total website views that provide families, youth, and professionals useful information and resources! 


Our youth, families, and professionals need a dedicated, safe space to connect, share, exchange information, and support each other. The PAVE office offers an accessible location with ample parking and public transportation. Unfortunately, after a winter leak almost all of our furniture was destroyed! 



Please consider investing so that we may refurbish our office with a new conference table, new chairs, and new technology (i.e., stands for large monitors for meetings, speakers for hybrid meetings, etc.). 



To connect, learn, and share with PAVE, Check out PAVE’s events!

Ask for what you need! Submit a PAVE Help Request for one-to-one support, information, resources, and training. Here are some simple instructions on how to get Help from PAVE.

Giving the Gift of Sensory-Regulation: Supporting a Happy Holiday Season for All

Sensory overload can happen to anyone. It is not specific to any single age or disability. In fact, it can also happen to people who do not have a disability. Whether your sensory systems are functioning as usual for you or disordered, your body needs both sensory input and a break from sensory input.
