Why Have The Nesting Place?
The Nesting Place at Ä¢¹½TV directly advances the Ä¢¹½TV Golisano Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Initiative (GIDDI) mission by providing an essential on-campus sensory environment that reduces overstimulation, improves focus, and welcomes a culture where neurodivergent students, faculty, and staff can authentically thrive. The Nesting Place also enhances one of Ä¢¹½TV GIDDI's goals to create a campus that invites students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) to thrive.
