Bringing a Best Buddies Playground to Your Community
Thursday, November 13, 2025 - 1:00 p.m. ET
Best Buddies® is the world’s largest organization dedicated to ending the social, physical, and emotional isolation of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. One powerful way to advance this mission for children and families is through inclusive playground design. In partnership with Miracle Recreation, Best Buddies has developed a model playground framework that fosters belonging, accessibility, and meaningful interaction. This session will introduce the inclusive strategies embedded in Best Buddies playgrounds, the support available to communities that choose to build them, and how thoughtful design can transform play spaces into welcoming hubs for all.
