Summer Groups

Groups will maintain a 3:1 ratio and are held outdoors. Due to the setting participants are best suited if they are able to stay close to the group without direct one to one assistance, follow simple directions, and have basic safety awareness.

All groups are supported by an Occupational Therapist and Speech Therapist.

Please email Dr. Zola at ZSloth.OT@StackedTherapies.com with any questions/concerns or if you are unsure if your child is a good fit for a specific group.
