Autism Treatments: What Children’s Village Means

Date July 31, 2009

Oh my…where do I begin…

Childrens Village at times has been my life line and my source of strength while going through challenging times with my son Kaleb. The staff, therapists, and child care director(Margarita) are absolutely WONDERFUL. Children’s Village is a place where you can go and feel comfortable even when your child is having their worst moment ever :)

I have had MANY great experiences that have helped shape me and my son and that have made a tremendous impact on both of us. Without the Village…I have no idea where we would be. Kaleb has progressed so far in the two years time that he has visited and recieved service through Childrens Village. Its been a foundation for us to begin the process of healing and hope.

One of the greatest Experiences I have had at the Village is the opportunity and blessing to have Kaleb attend the Collaborative Classroom. Celah Wales, Kim Crieder, Season Almason, and Amanda Potter…along with several Central students, have made a huge impact on children with developmental delays and autism. They will never know the impact they have had on our children. I could go on and on, but to sum it up, Childrens Village is a place I would recommend to anyone. Its been my saving grace through tough times…Thank you for making this possible and for caring so much for our children….Heidi Wallberg

    Thank you for those kind words Hedi. I often stop to marvel at how powerful services can be when families, community members, school districts and providers come together for a common purpose. This is exactly the mission of the Collaborative Classroom from the very beginning. It has been AMAZING to work with a variety of people, such as Ryan Zayac and students from the Central Washington University behavioral program. The connections between Children’s Village and local school districts have also been a powerful partnership. We appreciate these collaborations and love to hear about how it affects the daily lives of families. Collaboration WORKS!
