Description

Young Athletes is a mobile app for families of young children, ages 0-7 years, with and without intellectual disabilities.

The Young Athletes app provides a personalized experience and support for families through three key components: Personalized Activity Recommendations: After completing a development survey, families receive recommended activities that will help support their child's gross-motor, language, social emotional and cognitive development. All activities include a description, illustration, and video demonstration. Evidence-Based Health Resources: The app's Information Section includes current research, data, and disability-specific information to provide content for families as they navigate their child's health journey. Community Connection: Chat functionality within the app allows users to locate and communicate directly with other families in their area and build a network of support.
