“We’re conforming our tasks to meet their abilities,” Ms. Thompson told WFAA.

In addition to food prep in the kitchen, there’s a lot of dancing, laughing—and yes, hugging.
Joan Smiley, a mother whose daughter is being trained at Hugs said, “She becomes alive again. She gets her happy giggle back.”
The grand opening is projected for sometime this month.
