GoodLife Kids Foundation (GLKF) has a vision for all kids and youth with autism and intellectual disabilities to experience the joys and benefits of being active.

MOVE by GoodLife Kids is a free physical activity and fitness program for youth ages 12 to 21 with autism and intellectual disabilities, offered by GoodLife Kids Foundation. Youth with autism and intellectual disabilities often face barriers to participation in physical activity and fitness programs: whether it be a higher cost, lack of support for their individual needs or the environment itself is inaccessible. MOVE was created to break down these barriers and cultivate a sese of belonging through the power of movement.

What Makes MOVE Different?

• Classes offered year-round virtually and in-person
• One-hour classes up to three times per week
• All staff receive specialized training
• Individual needs are considered in every class
• 100% Free

These classes have been a blessing for my daughter. She has developed stronger social skills, increased her coordination and flexibility, as well as taking pride in her participation. She loves telling people outside of the class, family or friends that she is strong and lifts weights!
