Snoezlen Room for CRC

The fundraiser we are doing for the Children's Recovery Center is to help start a multi/sensory room called a "Snoezlen Room". This room is an advanced room using extremely creative ways to teach children, with severe/special needs, how to communicate and develop. Go check out this 7 min. video that explains what a snoezlen room is.

VIDEO: The Snoezlen Room



The Children's Recovery Center (CRC) is a long term sub-acute facility for children with severe/special medical needs. It's a step down from the Intesive Care Unit at the hospital, and helps families, who are willing, to train on their childs medical care, in hopes to eventually transition the child to home care. Some children live in this facility for years up to a decade. Some children no longer have families that come visit them. Trinity lived at CRC for 16 months during 2003-2004. If CRC wasn't an option, these long term chronically ill children would have no other choice but to live in the ICU's at the hospital. Long term chronic care is normally not covered under insurance, so the majority of the funds for CRC are from medi-cal/state funding. We all know that California isn't doing too well economically, and most state funded facilities are being effected by cut backs.



This snoezlen room is obviously something that would not be covered under state funding. This is where we all step in. After you watch the video and understand what a snoezlen room is, you'll understand that this room can be pricey to get started. So far we have raised just over $1000 and have set a goal to try to get to $6000. This will be a good chunk of change for CRC to start building the snoezlen room for the children. CRC plans to dedicate the snoezlen room to our sweet Angel baby, Trinity Melinda Adams. It brings tears to my eyes knowing that my sweet Trinity will continue making such a strong impact to so many lives...keeping Trinity alive and remembered in such a special way.
