About

Equipment - Variety provides medically prescribed equipment to help each child reach their potential. These include aids to enhance mobility (wheelchairs, adaptive beds, van lifts, orthotics) and communication (hearing aids, augmentative speech devices including software applications), as well as aids for therapy (therapeutic bikes, sensory equipment). Variety provided 470 pieces of medical equipment to 331 children in fiscal year 2019.

With the provision and use of this equipment, 84% of Variety children surveyed reported an increase in independence.
