Heart of the Spectrum: Building the Delaware Sensory Museum

Organization Mission:

Our mission is to build immersive, sensory-informed play environments that celebrate neurodiversity and support the holistic development of people with sensory and learning differences—while empowering their caregivers and communities through education, access, and innovation.

Every Heart Deserves a Place to Belong

The Heart of the Spectrum Initiative powers the growth of Delaware Sensory Museum (DSM) — a community-driven effort building Delaware’s first sensory-informed museum and resource hub for neurodivergent children and their families.

Through community programs like our Community Speaks gatherings, Sensory Family Exploration Days, healthcare and education partnerships, and our Empower Play adaptive athletics program, DSM is already creating spaces where children can explore, regulate, and thrive — while families connect with the resources and support they deserve.

But we’re just getting started.
Your support helps us expand these programs while continuing the development of our future sensory-inclusive home in Wilmington, Delaware. 

💛 Here’s how your support helps power the next phase of DSM:

Sensory Play & Program Equipment
Interactive sensory stations, tactile play elements, adaptive athletic equipment, and calming tools that allow children of all abilities to safely explore and engage.

Family & Community Programming
Free and low-cost sensory play days, caregiver workshops, and community conversations that bring families, educators, and healthcare providers together.

Empower Play Adaptive Athletics
Inclusive movement experiences that help neurodivergent children participate in structured play, teamwork, and physical activity in a supportive environment.

Every contribution helps us move closer to a Delaware where neurodiversity is celebrated, supported, and intentionally included in community spaces.

Join the movement. Give from the heart. 💛

Together, we’re building a place where every child can play, regulate, discover, and belong.
