Presentation for pediatric therapists and the community: We know that regular physical activity and movement is good for everyone but accessing community-based opportunities to move is often challenging for our kids with disabilities. In this presentation we will explore the physical, social and emotional benefits that community based programs, such as dance classes, provide to children of all ages with disabilities and their families. We will examine the evidence surrounding this and view examples of unique movement opportunities available locally. Attendees will also be introduced to recreational resources, camps and other programs available throughout the year.
