Little Rock, Arkansas – Following the announcement of their cooperation with KultureCity on Monday, the Little Rock Zoo has obtained certification as a sensory-inclusive facility.
Regardless of age or ability, the new effort aims to provide all visitors with sensory difficulties with a welcoming and enjoyable stay.
Because of the qualification, zoo employees are guaranteed yearly training on identifying visitors with special requirements and managing situations of sensory overload.
Visitors can check out KultureCity Sensory Bags, which contain fidget tools, noise-cancelling headphones, and other helpful items, while they’re at the zoo.
“Our communities shape our lives and to know that the Little Rock Zoo is willing to go the extra mile to ensure that everyone, no matter their ability, is included in community experiences is amazing,” Uma Srivastava, Executive Director for KultureCitysaid. “We’re honored to partner with the Little Rock Zoo to provide a truly inclusive experience for all guests.”
