Joshua may never learn to swim. But Y swimming lessons are still incredibly beneficial to him. After aging out of the special ed program at his public school, and after some of the precious few adult programs in the area closed due to covid, Joshuas mother wasnt sure where to turn. As a developmentally delayed person with cerebral palsy and autism, he needs therapeutic social interaction and PT. While we dont specifically offer those things, playing games in the pool helps meet those needs by engaging his body and providing positive social interaction. The swim staff, especially Jordan, have all been fantastic! Joshua is so excited to go for his swim lessons," shared his mother. Jordan has been able to block out time to see Joshua twice a week. Its this kind of commitment to community that drives us.
