Become a Church for All Abilities: Sensory Room Basics

Overcomer Ministries

Does your church need a sensory room? Let’s find out! Discover how a sensory room can help kids and adults with significant sensory needs feel calm, safe, and ready to learn about Jesus.  Did you know that a dysregulated sensory system can significantly impair learning? For people with sensory processing issues, meeting their sensory needs is crucial to help them focus on and understand the Bible. While many sensory needs can be addressed within the classroom, sometimes individuals may require a dedicated sensory space.
