About Play Place for Autistic Children

PAC's mission is to create a fun-filled, family experience for children and families affected by autism and other special needs issues. Through a unique play-powered environment, PAC combines recreation and education with a variety of social, occupational and physical overtones to promote reciprocal and imaginative growth and development. Our bottom line is to create an oasis of shared ambiance encouraging friendships between children and among parents.

PAC is a 501c(3) foundation dedicated to the support and growth of autistically, physically and mentally challenged children through inclusive play, programming, outreach and group therapies. Formulated on the theory that services and treatment can be expensive and not covered by most health insurance, PAC's objective is to alleviate costs, optimize alliances and defeat autism and other challenges facing children and families via big smiles and breakthrough moments. Our one-of-a-kind facility will house a computer cafe, hair cut hut, chalk-board laser light lounge, bouncers, swings and more, together with budget-conscious supplementary services, including group speech and occupational therapy, hyperbaric chamber therapy and sensory integration services.
