helping kids be kids worldwide
Outreach
In 1994, after more than 20 years of operation in Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA, we implemented our Global Outreach Program to equip parents, caregivers, teachers, and professionals around the globe with educational tools, training, and mentorship to care for children with special needs.
The world is changing for these children, and you can be a part of it.

What people are saying
Free Special Education Courses
Little Light House Academy is a website of free online special education and therapy courses for professionals, parents, caregivers, and more. These diverse courses are written and reviewed by professionals from the special education field with over 50+ years of experience.
Each specialized course includes comprehensive and relevant information that can be used in and outside of the classroom or at home. Participants can enjoy these free, user-friendly courses at their own pace. They are filled with innovative and practical tools for every day use, and include a variety of media for accessible learning.
Equipping Churches for Special Needs Ministry
Little Light House equips churches for special needs ministry by providing resources, training, and support. Churches that lack the knowledge and tools to create inclusive environments can unintentionally exclude children with disabilities and their families. Our partnership helps churches offer compassionate support, fostering an inclusive community where everyone can participate fully, enriching both the children’s spiritual growth and the church community.

International Training Trips
We strategically train other special needs programs around the world on cutting-edge technologies and therapies. We do this through short-term trips in which our primary focus is to provide professional development and training.
Our highly qualified teams of professionals conduct hands-on activities, conferences, and presentations depending on the need. Teams may also provide information and demonstrations on how to create assistive technology with locally available supplies.
Virtual Training
In our nearly 50 years of working with children with special needs, we have gained many incredible insights, techniques, and tools to help them thrive. We also offer free training and downloads of our “Head to Toe, Heart & Soul” Bible-based curriculum, developed and utilized by Little Light House staff. Let’s all work together to help kids be kids.
