Tours and Video Showings

"This school welcomes all, embraces each, supports everyone, and hopes that you find yourself better for having been here." - Sally Huss

We welcome tour groups of all sizes to visit the Center and see firsthand what happens here as staff work with children to help them become more independent. A knowledgable tour guide will lead you through key areas of the Center, highlighting information and in many instances, introduce you to other staff and children.

If a visit isn't possible for you, request a copy of our informational video, Changing Lives Forever.

Representatives from Anne Carlsen Center are excited to show our video to your service organization, church or school group!

The 20-minute video features students and three families with personal stories of how the Center's approach to caring for and educating children with special needs has impacted them.

Intertwined throughout the families' stories in "Changing Lives Forever" is information and images of the Center's students and the activities they participate in throughout their days and the care they receive.
You will be touched by these children and their accomplishments.

Arrange to tour the Center or request a video. Or call 1-800-568-5175.
