Pittsburgh International Airport

multisensory room at Pitsburg International Airport

“Air travel is stressful, and it can be especially difficult for individuals with autism and other neurodevelopmental challenges. Presley’s Place, located just past Gate A-7, offers a calming respite for travelers with sensory sensitivities and their families to de-escalate prior to getting on a plane or even after landing.”

Morgan’s Place

Morgan's Place Multisensory Room

“Morgan’s Place is a fun place for those with or without special needs of any age or ability level to come and stimulate their senses in an environment that is uniquely created just for them. This very special place can be reserved on an individual basis or for small groups including school field trips and birthday parties.  Designed as a gentle-use facility, we are not a drop-off center but rather a place for inclusive and cooperative activities for the individual that needs a sensory controlled environment and/or wheelchair accessibility.”
