🌟 Happy World Physical Therapy Day! 🌟

Today, we celebrate incredible physical therapists like Christine Pelis, PT, DPT, PCS. Christine is a licensed physical therapist and pediatric clinical specialist dedicated to improving access to equipment and recreation for children of all abilities at the Golisano Center for Special Needs.

She partners with families, clinicians, and local therapists to create durable medical equipment solutions—often volunteering with Arise Adaptive Design to build affordable, custom gear for kids.

Thank you, Christine, for making a real difference in children’s lives! 🙌💙

🔎 Misconceptions about Spina Bifida 🔍

Too often, people assume:
❌ Everyone with Spina Bifida can’t walk
❌ It’s contagious
❌ It only affects children
❌ Sports and hobbies aren’t possible

Here’s the truth:
✔️ Mobility looks different for everyone
✔️ Spina Bifida is a birth defect, it’s not contagious
✔️ It’s lifelong—adults with Spina Bifida live, work, and thrive
✔️ Adaptive sports make athletics possible

✨ Awareness matters. The more people know, the fewer barriers we face.

This year is extra special — it’s the 1st Walk-N-Roll in Syracuse and the 2nd in Mid-Hudson. We’re building something bigger together — and we want YOU with us.

You can expect raffles, games, and that energy you only get when people come together for a cause that matters. But it starts now — with you registering, creating a team, and helping raise funds that power vital programs for families across New York.

📅 Syracuse – September 28
📅 Mid-Hudson – October 4

👉 Don’t wait. Register today and help us make this year’s Walk-N-Rolls unforgettable.
