LIVEfor Empowering KidsAuthor: Kathryn Kraft, MPT
LIVEfor was created in 2011 by a pediatric physical therapist with a dream to help all kids with a physical disability maximize their potential, regardless of their ability to pay for treatment. This podcast is an extension of that dream where we connect with parents, caregivers, kids, teachers, medical providers, and entrepreneurs who share a vision that no one is limited by any disability, condition or societal pressure. We talk about how physical therapy can be incorporated into any setting, but more importantly how movement is vital for development of self efficacy.
