The Inclusive Outdoor Classroom (IOC) was established in January 2016 by Anne Sivanathan, in response to parents' pleas for more resources and services for neurodivergent children. The philosophy behind IOC is simple - that all children benefit from outdoor learning, and that by integrating outdoor and indoor programs, an optimal environment for children's learning and development is created. We catch up with Anne, to find out more about her and the IOC's work, through the years.

On Good Things, we celebrate - you guessed it - good people, doing good things. From CSO's and NGO's, to community groups and individuals, we give props to selfless folks helping others, and who are making an impact in our world, in big and small ways.
