Community programs

Mobile Sensory Unit

Ability Tree First Coast believes it's important to promote inclusion in the community, and our Mobile Sensory Unit (MSU) helps
this happen.  The Mobile Sensory Unit is a 20-foot trailer converted into an ocean-themed sensory room for families in the community to utilize at community events.
