The establishment of the Eagles Autism Foundation in 2019 and the launch of the NFL's first in-stadium sensory room has marked a pivotal change for accessibility in sports. The sensory room offers a welcome escape for fans who may need a moment to decompress during the high-stakes environment of a football game.
"For those with pent-up stress, it provides an opportunity to calm down," stated one parent, emphasizing the essential relief offered by the sensory room. Parents of children, like Jack, face a delicate balance of pushing their children to try new experiences while also ensuring they have a positive and enjoyable time.
