St. Vincent will host a groundbreaking ceremony for its new state-of-the-art, indoor therapeutic sensory playground for young patients who are cared for at St. Vincent Center for Children in Evansville. The playground will help provide sensory stimulation and cognitive development for children who struggle with a variety of conditions such as Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD).

The playground was made possible due to a generous donation by Bill and Mary O’Daniel Stone. They are natives of Evansville and are 1973 graduates of Memorial High School. Bill is CEO of Connecticut based, SS&C Technologies, which also has a large Evansville office. The playground will be named in honor of Bill’s mom, Patricia Browning Stone, who is also a graduate of Memorial High School and of the St. Mary’s School of Nursing.

The St. Vincent Center for Children is a comprehensive outpatient facility that was created to address the unmet healthcare needs of the region’s children. Services include pediatric behavioral health, pediatric subspecialty clinic, a resource center and the Tri-State’s only behavior-based, intensive feeding therapy program.
