About the 24-Hour Postural Care Project
Our mission is to maximize function and participation while helping to prevent body distortion through continuous postural care
Children and young adults who can’t change their position are at risk of serious health problems. Most positioning support focuses only on daytime, but our project is one of the first in the U.S. to offer consultation and training for 24-hour postural care—using routines-based support to protect body shape and improve quality of life.
