Today, families from our JUMPSTART! Therapeutic Playgroup met for their “taste buddies” session. This group created a positive sensory food environment for food exploration through touch, smell, and taste. Children had the opportunity to experience a variety of textures and flavors during a fun “cooking” activity. This class also incorporated social skills, sequencing and following directions. Thank you to all families for coming out to share in the fun! For more information about CPNJ’s JUMPSTART! Therapeutic Playgroup, or to register for future sessions, contact Hetty Kintiroglou at (973)740-2353 or via email at Hkintiroglou@cpnj.org!

Today our Orange Adult Training Center held its annual Thanksgiving Luncheon for consumers and their families. Guests from many different departments of CPNJ came to help serve, and share in enjoying the delectable spread. Special thanks to all Orange ATC staff members for orchestrating this delightful afternoon.
