A huge step forward for families in mid-Missouri: The Thompson Center for Autism and Neurodevelopment is about to open its brand-new, much larger facility in Columbia. Twice the size of the old center, this $55 million space will offer more therapy rooms, a playground, and even a therapy gym. What’s really exciting is the on-site café, where patients can build real-world job skills. The grand opening on May 8 will have tours and hands-on activities, so it’s a great chance to see how this place could change lives. How do you think this expanded center will impact our community? #Health #BodyHealth #ColumbiaMO
