Mighty Kids is a functional, activities-based intensive intervention approach designed specifically for children with disability.  

The program provides 1:1 intensive practice with a therapist, who will adapt and change tasks specifically to each child, to enable long-lasting individual improvements. This constant variable nature of practice enables each child’s skills to be achieved not only in a therapy setting, but also at home, school, or in the community.
