At Ms. Gussie’s Place, you’ll find warmth, compassion, creativity, color and, most of all, music. “Ms. Gussie’s Place” is a YouTube show produced and hosted by Jacqueline Howard, an Atlanta educator for children with special needs.

“The moment a child knows that you see them, and not their disability or different ability, they will respond,” said Howard.

Her learning and therapy center, of the same name, welcomes students of all ages and disabilities with programming designed to engage, encourage and delight those who come through its doors. On YouTube, her singing, guitar playing and fun lessons with animations are available for everyone, not just Atlanta locals.
