Groundbreaking

We are so greatful to have had our groundbreaking ceremony on Sunday 2/12. It was a beautiful ceremony & I'm so thankful for T's Disability Acceptance to be apart of the inclusive playground portion. For more information & photos regarding our groundbreaking, follow our Instagram, ts.disability.acceptance or Facebook, T's Disability Acceptance.

A big THANK YOU to all of you amazing people who have made my dreams of creating an inclusive playground a reality. 💚

Where Is Our Playground Going To Be Located?

We are so excited to announce that in March 2022 we decided to partner with Praise Assembly Church to bring a disability inclusive playground to the Northside of Springfield Missouri!

Praise has some land behind their church building and plan to build a while entire park on the Northside of Springfield Missouri, & we are in charge of the playground.

To find out more about them, go to their social media pages or website. I have them linked.

They have a 4 year plan, with ground breaking starting in February 2023. The whole park should be finished by 2026, if it all goes by the plan. The playground portion could potentially be done sooner, but there is no guarantee at the moment.

We are so thrilled to now have a partnership with Praise Assembly!

April - We volunteered & got ourselves out in the community for the first time!
