A Message From Kai Kuenning

As many of you know, our sweet Kai suddenly became nonverbal at eleven months of age. Kyle and I have spent the last two years advocating for him and pushing for answers. We’re still searching. Unlike other programs, Little Light House allowed us to enroll Kai based on parent concern. Diagnoses are not required for children of different abilities to attend the amazing programs in their Developmental Center and Family Learning Center. They have some of the best pediatric specialty therapists in the state with the resources and equipment needed to help these precious babies reach their full potential. Completely tuition-free. It’s hard to describe the relief Kyle and I have felt by knowing we have such a great team assisting in Kai’s journey. We feel a little less alone (and a little less crazy) for the range of emotions we have experienced through everything. Seeing these kids learning, playing, and growing a little bit every week has been so special. It’s so easy for exceptional kids to fall through the cracks or get stuck in a home/therapy loop. Please consider donating so Kai and his friends can continue to enjoy the advantages of this amazing program and have a place to call their own.

In Support of Little Light House

Little Light House is a Christian Developmental Center for Children with Special Needs from birth to 6 years old. Tulsa’s Little Light House is internationally recognized as providing some of the most individualized special education and therapeutic early intervention services in the world. A trans-disciplinary team approach maximizes a comprehensive knowledge from professionals who work collaboratively to design prescriptive programs for each child and assist every child in reaching their maximum potential. Through a variety of programs and schedules, these services are carried out by highly credentialed teachers, therapists, and specialists who represent decades of pediatric experience. Early Intervention classes are provided as a part-time program where caregivers attend and learn along with their child for two-hour classes once a week. 

Little Light House is tuition-free for families and does not receive government or United Way funding. Support comes from individuals, organizations, corporations, and foundations. In addition, LLH hosts four annual fundraisers each year bringing in about 40% of the $4.2 million dollar operating cost that allows our staff of over 90 members to provide services to over 300 children and families, support nearly a thousand volunteers, and train over 1,000 college and career students each year.

Little Light House believes that all children are a gift from God with the potential to achieve specific milestones to advance their quality of life. We strive for excellence by utilizing a Bible-based curriculum in a fun and loving atmosphere. We believe in an individualized, trans-disciplinary and God-centered approach to education-an approach that joins parents, professionals, and the Holy Spirit as partners in order to nurture the spirit, mind, and body of the children and their families. Our commitment incorporates being called to work/volunteer with children with special needs. Little Light House encourages a positive outlook on the future, based on trust in a loving heavenly Father.
