“We are so glad we heard about Sequoia TR!  Bronwyn has really enjoyed the activities and crafts at the Sequoia Social and looks forward to going every week.  She has enjoyed meeting new people and is excited to tell us all about her day when she returns. She loves the staff and volunteers and we have always found them to be welcoming and professional.  We would definitely recommend Sequoia TR to others!”

-Brytteva Black (sister of Bronwyn participant of Sequoia Social on Mondays)

“We are thankful for Sequoia TR!  My daughter has the opportunity to be in an environment that is safe and fun to socialize and meet friends, exercise and be accepted as she is. Sequoia TR also provides a community for us parents to gather at events/activities to catch up, learn from each other and provide support.  Having a child with developmental disabilities is unique and knowing you are not alone on this path is a comfort.  “

Written by Sharon Chow, mother of Rachel Chow. Rachel participates in weekly bowling, dances, art classes, and outings.
