Kids in Action began as an avenue for children with disabilities to participate in structured social and physical activities in the community. As our patients can move through different health care settings, often beginning in an acute care facility and then transitioning to rehab and outpatient therapy, it was identified by many of the families that there was a lack of options for their children to participate in social and physical activities. Parents were concerned that their children would lose newly acquired skills that were recently achieved through their therapy services. As a result, Kids in Action was designed for outpatients and former patients at The HSC Pediatric Center, along with other children in the DC metro community. The program offers year-round adaptive team sports, social events and health classes for children with disabilities, ages 4 and up in the DC area (including Northern Virginia and Maryland). The program is entirely free to all participants, and siblings are encouraged to participate. All abilities are welcomed, as necessary adaptations are made so everyone can participate, and events are supervised by recreation therapists.
