Program accomplishments

• The BFit Power Exercise Program has been so successful that the management of the National Rehabilitation Hospital has expanded the program to a second location. There are now three 12-week programs: Fall and Spring programs are held at the Northern Virginia site, and the Summer program is held at the National Rehabilitation Hospital in Washington, DC. In FY 2023 Joey's Foundation provided the initial $100,000 as the supporting organization and financial sponsor of the inaugural year of the BFit Power-based Exercise Program in Northern Virginia. The complimentary program included two full sessions: the first in the Fall of 2024 and a second session in the Spring of 2025. By word of mouth the reputation of the program has spread throughout the disability community, and parents are eager to have their children enrolled. The BFit program encourages physical activity and participation for children with cerebral palsy (CP), the most common motor disability in childhood, affecting an estimated 500,000 to 700,00 children and adults in the United States. CP is a collection of non-progressive conditions affecting the brain. Impairments are caused by abnormal development of the nervous system characterized by spasticity, muscle weakness, and poor motor control. This vulnerable population is often excluded from participating in community-based physical activity. The BFit program's supportive social environment reduces barriers to participation and focuses on increasing not only physical but also social functioning. The 12-week program consists of two 60-90 minute activity sessions each week. Outcome measures for each participant are based on standardized assessments done at the start of the program with goals set by the participants and their families. BFit enables adolescents with physical disabilities to pursue their desire to participate in recreational sports and increase physical activity. With positive reinforcement and increased self-esteem, participants learn that they are capable of participating in many different types of exercises, utilizing a variety of equipment and learning new motor skills. The program implementation requires exercise space, equipment, program coordination, volunteer trainers from local physical therapy schools, and medical oversight. Participants demonstrate improved functional outcomes, mental health and socialization. An additional benefit of the program is the hands-on experience for the physical therapy students who volunteer to work with these children. Under the oversight of licensed physical therapists, these students are responsible for administering the exercise programs, documentation, set up, break down (including cleaning), nightly feedback, and outcome measures. The volunteer students meet with the MedStar Health professional staff before and after each session to discuss each child's needs, develop appropriate exercises based on individual needs, and review outcomes and progress. The volunteer students benefit from the hands-on learning experience with the children and from the professional mentoring of the MedStar National Rehabilitation Network physical and occupational therapists.

• Joey's Corner provides books for children with and without disabilities. The organization is engaged in the creation and distribution of multisensory adaptive books for children with motor skill impairment. Adapted text and symbol-supported versions of reading material will bring books to life in a visual and physical way. Props like puppets or toys enhance a story and increase understanding. Renovated, laminated copies of image or characters make the reading material interactive. Finally, the use of speech-generating devices aligned to a text will increase interaction and understanding of the story. Multisensory books are creative, fun and enhance comprehension.0
