Positive Impact
Bringing Therapy Services to Ponca City
WHO WE ARE
Positive Impact is a therapy service for children with disabilities that operates on the Opportunity Center campus. Over 50 children receive therapies according to their specific needs and diagnosis, including physical therapy, speech therapy and occupational therapy. Positive Impact has filled a desperate need in our community by bringing these services to Ponca City and has greatly improved the quality of life for these children and their families.
As some of you have possibly heard, as of January 1, 2019, Positive Impact became a program of Opportunity Center. The children served by Positive Impact are the future adults that will be in need of our vocational and possibly residential services and we couldn’t be more excited to be a part of their support system as they grow! This expansion in services offered by Opportunity Center is a perfect way for us to adapt to the ever-changing needs of those with disabilities in our community.
WHAT WE DO
Positive Impact The Autism Support Center) offers Speech and Occupational Therapy. The therapists travel to Ponca City and do the therapy here at the Autism Support Center.
A child does not need to have ASD to receive services here as long as they have a referral from their doctor, insurance requirements are different, but there must be some kind of delay, that is all. Soonercare and most private insurances accepted.
We also have a monthly support group meeting on the 2nd Tuesday of every month at 6:30 pm at the The Opportunity Center,Inc, 220 Village Circle Drive (behind the Opportunity Center). This program does social events and more traditional support group meetings with information for parents, while providing child care.
