Supporting someone who stutters isn’t a game of “let me finish that for you.” It’s leaning in, really listening, and cheering them on.

All children have unique sensory preferences, including autistic children. Learn how you can make the most of these preferences by matching them to “people games” – toy-free games where all the fun is in the interaction!

Explore how playful routines like tickling, peek-a-boo, or chase can be tailored to your child’s sensory needs to make learning and communication come naturally.

Shawn Coulter is the often unseen team member at Shoreline. He comes in after hours to contribute his skills, knowledge, strength, and tools as a skilled tradesperson to make our office what it is. Today he was in putting up shelves in our freshly painted waiting area for the littles' library.

Literacy is life-saving.

In their 2005 paper “The role of literacy in health and health care", Dewalt and Pignone argue that literacy not only provides adults with a better understanding of healthcare, but also better access to it.

They write: “Patients with inadequate literacy have less health-related knowledge, receive less preventive care, have poorer control of their chronic illnesses, and are hospitalized more frequently than other patients” (p. 463).
