Safe, sensory space at the Grafton PD built with everyone in mind

 

GRAFTON, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Going to the police department doesn't have to be so stressful anymore at least for the Village of Grafton. Inside, you'll find a new sensory space geared toward those on the spectrum, apparently the first of its kind across the nation.

There's also an open invite for anyone in the community who needs to decompress. Dianne Helmer, her husband Brad, and their nonprofit "All My Friends" have been part of the collaborative team to make this $8500 initiative a reality. This is the fourth space of its kind they've built locally.
