Initiative Description
Vermont AT Program partnered with the Vermont Family Network on a vaccine clinic for children with special needs. We helped advise them on the range of sensory AT that was available and even provided some examples from our lending library at the time of the event. The clinic was part of a grant the VFN earned from COVID relief funding.
Lessons Learned/Replication
As a result of this collaboration, many children were vaccinated against COVID19 that might otherwise have been reluctant to be. We were able to share information about sensory AT with our partner organization and have considered adding some additional items to our inventory as a result.
