动物 & 自然 Program
Green Chimneys was founded on the belief that children will benefit from their interaction with nature 和 animals. As a core component of our programming for children with special needs, the main criteria for each animal’s presence are that they thrive in our care 和 play a supportive role in our education 和 animal-assisted therapy programs. Outdoor experiences 和 nature activities are also incorporated as a means to both educate 和 emotionally strengthen the children we serve.
