The BEE MINDFUL® program was modified to expand into the community setting with the goal of allowing families to enjoy community events as a family unit in a safe supportive environment.

  • The scope of Bee Mindful stretches well beyond the healthcare setting. To date, Bee Mindful has raised awareness at numerous event venues such as Jones Beach Theater and the Queens County Farm Museum. Three Bee Mindful sensory rooms were recently built at UBS Arena to give people with special needs a quiet, safe space to relax. Outreach plays an important role in spreading Bee Mindful throughout the community, and we’re always looking to expand the program and support our community.
