Mission & Values
It takes a Village
We’re here to Help
Our Vision
Our services are as important as the other cadres crucial to the success of inclusion and education (i.e., assistive technology, speech and occupational therapists, psychologists and assistants). They are also in direct alignment with the 2nd priority of the Zayed Higher Organization for People of Determination (ZHO – [email protected] ) Strategic Plan of 2019-2022, which is to develop educational performance to improve the inclusion process. Our solutions also address the 5th priority of this Plan which is to a) employ IT and data management to support the work environment and b) to support innovations and foresighting the future.
of students WITH A PLAN successfully graduate and begin their career development.
Short-term goals and solutions are outlined on our home page, with the belief that plan adherence can grow our SEN population into more productive, self-regulating adults. If it takes a Village to raise a child, it takes a child with autism to raise the consciousness of the Village. Our goal is servicing exceptional students and their POD families, assisting teachers, SEN Coordinators and therapists (the components of the “Village”) with up-to-date resources, methods and technology (for ease of delivery). Our mission is to offer the best support with no judgment, sharing resources that are not just Spectrum friendly but necessary for well-rounded student development (access to movies with lower volumes, swimming pools, hippotherapy, sensory rooms and software options designed with this special population in mind). The hope is to have warehouse space housing our materials and tools available to reinforce and update supplies to teachers, coordinators and families (i.e. scheduling kits, education tools, sensory items, OT gadgets, weighted vests and blankets, comfort cushions), available to order or sent out as need presents.
Our long-term vision is a brick-and-mortar facility serving as a respite camp for these children and their families ~ to help educate, guide them into work training and house them individually (for parental/guardian breaks) or as a family. This would be a conducive, sensory safe haven for the student and provide an opportunity for their families (parents/guardians/siblings) to get hands-on assistance with educational, safety and behavioral strategies, thereby becoming better equipped to meet the needs of their loved one. Autism is not a condition, but a spectrum of conditions. SENHELP is not the only answer for resolution, but the best answer for services targeting solutions.
