Recreation Starts with Rehab
The Kelly Brush Foundation is helping rehab facilities elevate patient recovery & long-term outcomes. Through the Active Project, we partner with rehabilitation facilities to provide free, evidence-based resources that help patients discover adaptive sports, understand what’s possible, and build confidence as they transition into life beyond clinical care.
Why Partner with us?
Every individual – regardless of injury, disability, or mobility level – deserves opportunities to be active, connected, and live life to their fullest potential.
Empower individuals to see what’s possible after injury.
Provide education that sparks action.
Help patients feel supported after discharge.
