In this episode, Eileen Lamb speaks with Santa Wade, a longtime Cherry Hill Programs Santa who is specially trained to support and engage autistic children during their holiday photo experience. Autism Speaks partners with Cherry Hill to help prepare Santas and staff to create calm, welcoming, sensory-aware environments so every child can enjoy a moment with Santa in their own way. Join us as we explore what an inclusive Santa visit really looks like, the small adjustments that make a big difference, and the joy of creating meaningful holiday memories for families of children with autism.
The Cherry Hill Programs Santa Cares program provides a sensory-safe environment for autistic individuals to get their one-on-one time with Santa!
