SNACK, the Special Needs Activity
Center for Kids, is the creation of New York mom and SNACK's
Executive Director, Jackie Ceonzo. After being unable to find
a fulfilling program for her son, Joey, whose disabilities fall on
the autism spectrum, she worked with a team of professionals to
create a place where special needs children can socialize with
others while learning practical skills in a fun and creative
environment. |

SNACK after school and weekend programs, geared toward children ages
3-13 with special needs, are designed and staffed to address
challenging behavioral issues, increase skill levels and promote
improved social interaction. SNACK provides a variety of group and
individual activities including sports, art, music, yoga, movement,
drama and swimming. Our high ratio of staff to student (2:1), class size limit (maximum 8 per class),
and use of the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to manage
behavior and provide reinforcement, enables children who participate to
make progress. SNACK provides children and their parents with a
nurturing environment all too often unavailable to those most in need
of these services. At SNACK, you can be confident that your children
are safe, happy, and having fun! |
