Episode 3 – Tucson's First Sensory Park
<p>Learn about Tucson's first Sensory Park with Paul O'Rourke, VP of Development and Communications for Intermountain Centers. Paul is heading up the development of Intermountain Centers’ new Sensory Park. </p> <p>The Park will be one of the only west of the Mississippi, designed to accommodate those on the autism spectrum and will include elements for those individuals with physical disabilities. The park will be located downtown, adjacent to Intermountain at 401 N. Bonita Ave. The master plan for the park will include five distinct “zones” featuring sensory playscapes and equipment. The park will also include a separate sensory play space for younger kids (2-5 years old) who are on the autism spectrum. This play space will include equipment that encourages socialization and sensory discovery.</p> <p>Intermountain is proud of its 48-year legacy of innovation and dedication to forging new treatment venues and programs in Arizona. In its infancy, Intermountain was dedicated to the provision of intensive residential services for adjudicated Native American youth that exhibited extremely challenging behaviors. Since that time, Intermountain has grown significantly and has established new programs for individuals of all ethnicities diagnosed with developmental disabilities, substance abuse, serious mental illness, and serious emotional disabilities in Tucson, Phoenix, Flagstaff and Chino Valley (Yavapai County, Arizona).</p>
