What is Sensory Inclusion?

Every person you support has a sensory system — and it shapes everything from how safe they feel in a space to how ready they are to take part in everyday activities. Yet most professionals receive little or no training in this area. This guide changes that. It introduces the eight sensory systems, explores how sensory processing differences show up in real people across real settings, and explains how a simple shift in perspective — from "what is wrong with this person?" to "what needs to change around this person?" — can transform the support you provide.
