    Kool Kidz is another organization that works with children with serious neuromuscular disorders. Their main focus is for kids to be able to function in their natural environment and acquire necessary everyday skills. I choose this because I like how they keep it natural and don't necessarily urge them to get to a sport level status, but just back to normal.

They have infant programs as well as OT and speech centers to offer to the patients as needed.

Many of the clinics have specialized equipment for cerebral palsy patients that help in the rehabilitation of particular muscles effected by such harsh disorders. Their mission is to improve the quality of theses children's live through rehabilitation techniques which is exactly what I would love to be a part of one day. Nothing is better than helping a child in need, especially ones hurting in so many ways.
