Livia’s independence Journey

One of the most rewarding parts of GiGi’s Playhouse Twin Cities is watching participants grow and gain confidence over time. Livia is a perfect example! 

For the past two years, Livia has been a dedicated participant, working hard in programs like Music Therapy and LMNOP. Recently, she’s been gaining independence—and this session of Social Skills for Early Learners stood out to program lead Rae in particular. 

“Livia really took a step forward and became the leader of the class!.” 

Other participants often look to Livia and follow her lead. And it’s not just in programs—Livia greets staff with enthusiasm, showing just how much she is coming out of her shell. 

We are so proud of Livia and can’t wait to see her continue to grow!
