At Discovery House, we know that children’s amazing brains can be changed forever by trauma and that this can have negative life-long consequences. Family violence can become a cycle that repeats. So, we focus on approaches with children and youth that can help stop the cycle forever and help the brain to heal. When the right approach is taken at the right time, healing happens.
Rosie’s Place is a trauma-informed development centre designed for children. The specially trained team work with some of our youngest clients up to age 5 in this soothing and creative space. Staff help children meet their developmental milestones through sensory play, arts and crafts, reading, and more.
