MEET THE OWNERS
In 2005, Jennifer Reeves opened the doors of Building Futures Pediatric Therapy in Monroe. It was her intention to create a comfortable environment where children could feel right at home while they achieved much-needed milestones.
In 2008, Wendy Petrus joined her to strengthen the team and expand its reach out into the community.

ABOUT OUR MONROE LOCATION
Jennifer and Wendy recently renovated this facility around an open concept. There’s a kitchen, just like you would find in a home, and it overlooks the gym where so many children gain greater strength and mobility.
To encourage higher literacy and a love of reading in all our children, each treatment room has a literary theme, like Harry Potter, Curious George or Alice in Wonderland. Every shelf is laden with games and toys that double as engaging therapy tools. Check out the clinic below!
