“There are no guarantees in life, except that
everyone faces struggles. This is how we learn (and grow). Some face struggles
from the moment they are born. They are the most special of all people, requiring
the most care and compassion and reminding us that love is the sole purpose
of life.”
- Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Providing Multi Sensory
Environments can improve the health and quality of life of individuals
with disabilities by improving brain activity. Yet these individuals

The Christopher Douglas Hidden Angel Foundation's mission is to enrich the lives, health, and social well-being of people with cognitive, emotional, and physical challenges through the use of Multi Sensory Environments (MSE). Their focus is on the design, development, implementation and education of Multi Sensory Environments with the aim to enable productivity, inclusion, independence, and self-determination.
Our approach is based on well-documented studies of neurological
cognition and emotional development. We offer advisory and financial
support for the establishment of integrated, publicly accessible Multi
Sensory facilities and for basic research and education.
