Community Support and Life Skill Development

All SDP services at PlaySpace Pediatrics are developed collaboratively with the child, family, and support team. Goals are based on the individual’s strengths, needs, preferences, and family priorities. Session plans remain flexible and are adjusted as needs evolve, allowing families meaningful choice and control over services.
