- LifeTown (Columbus OH) is a
unique interactive world where
children with special needs have fun
while they practice important life
skills through role play.
- At LifeTown children with
disabilities find a place that has
been specifically designed to meet
their needs.
- Through role-play, they practice
important life skills, such as
making and keeping appointments,
visiting the library, banking,
shopping or even applying for jobs.
- LifeTown is more than a
community center or therapeutic
facility. It is a house of
friendship.
- Our caring and supportive
volunteers are the key to the
success of LifeTown. By role-playing
the various positions within
LifeTown, volunteers allow the
students who visit to practice
everyday functions and interactions
in a safe and controlled environment
as they make the transition from
classroom lessons to the real world
experience.
