TRIKE PROGRAM REPORT
September 11, 2006

It has come to my attention from many people around the country that they do not have the information or resources to find children who would benefit from a TRIKE.

Great resources for finding children who could avail themselves of a TRIKE are the special education facilities/schools that are in almost every city, pediatric physical therapy offices, and each state's version of Children's Medical Services, along with Lion's, Moose, etc. and all the other civic organizations.  Not to be left out are Churches, Synagogues.

The children's weight must be limited to 50 pounds
 
The children must have some use of their arms (or prosthetics) to "pedal" the Trike

The parents/social workers/medical people/physical therapists should be able to inform you if the prospective child has the minimum mental capability to observe directions for TRIKE riding.

Semper FI,
