Programs & Services

   Kya’s Krusade is a nonprofit comprehensive resource center, serving children and families affected by physical disabilities, specializing in Arthrogryposis and other less-publicized physical disabilities.  We offer education and assistance to children from diagnosis through 18 years of age.  We encourage the use of our services by those affected by any type of physical disability, as the benefits of many of our activities are not disability-specific.
     We strive to provide emotional support, education, hope and inspiration throughout the journey of these children into adulthood.  Kya’s Krusade advocates compassion, awareness and the expansion of available resources for children with physical disabilities.
