We create a place for every kid on the playground to feel included, be active, and build valuable social and emotional skills. We partner with schools, districts, and after-school programs to provide a service or mix of services including on-site coaches, professional training for school staff who support recess, and consultative partnerships. Playworks’s mission is to improve the health and well-being of children by increasing opportunities for physical activity and safe, meaningful play.
