ENT:

Smooth Sailing Independence will allow those diagnosed with ASD to

learn how to complete everyday tasks and life skills independently. The

facility forms a space where anyone can feel at ease and able to adapt

to the training rooms that prepare them

for real-world experiences. Change is difficult to deal with, so im

plementing routines, organization,

and sensory items benefit those who are becom

ing independent adults. O

nce the techniques and skills are taught, the individuals with ASD should be able to function on their own to the best of their ability.

RESEARCH:

Location - 3%

of children living in New Jersey were

diagnosed with ASD in April of 2018. In Ocean County,

there were about 2,500 cases. This number has tripled

in the last 14 years and will continue to rise as the population increases. O

nce these individuals grow up and graduate, they need help preparing for their future as they start to live m

ore independently.

Sensory Accomm

odations - Colors like soft blues and earthtones create a calm

ing effect rather than a bright red that could cause agitation. Lighting should not be too bright, therefore dim

mable settings

will be available throughout the space. Sensory overload can lead to distress, so the sensory room

will have item

s such as a weighted blanket, vestibular swings, bean bags, and noise cancelling headphones to help with relaxation. O

thers may need m

ore stim

ulation, so a mini tram

poline and fidget toys allow their brains to becom

e energized for the day.
