Marine
Animals Assist Those With Special Needs
For more
than a decade, Clearwater Marine Aquarium has conducted
programs for children with special needs. The Aquarium's Full
Circle Programs are designed for children with special
needs between 4 and 17 years of age. All of the Full Circle's
three programs are held at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium
in Clearwater. Program details at www.CMAquarium.org.
Full Circle
Programs give children with physical and emotional difficulties
an opportunity to interact with dolphins, river otters, sea
turtles and stingrays. The children also learn about the marine
environment right here in Tampa Bay.
While
the Clearwater Marine Aquarium provides a home to injured
and sick animals, the animals in turn help children with special
needs overcome their own special challenges. To see if your
child with special needs can participate in Full Circle Programs,
contact the Clearwater Marine Aquarium at 888-239-9414, ext.
241 or email them at fullcircle2@CMAquarium.org.
