At Fort Wilderness, the clients will interact with the animals and the various settings in the petting farm, the Disney horse barn, the marina, and the beach area. . More than 60 people, comprised of clients and therapists, will be participating in this joint effort. The therapists will be working one-on-one which will stress use of the five senses—sound, touch, smell, taste, and feel.

The clients of Natures Place will be in direct contact with marine and land animal-assistants at both Fort Wilderness and at Sea World. In addition, att Sea World, an educational presenter will help guide the visits that will include hands-on tasks and activities with marine animals to assist in the therapy.

In the near future, Natures Place will be participating in a dolphin swim session at Discovery Cove. This will be an incredible experience for our clients when they can see, touch, hear, and swim with the dolphins," Adams said.

We are excited and thankful that our gracious partners are willing to cooperate with us in helping those who have difficulties," she noted. It will be a summer to remember!"
