Blue-Out at the Ballpark was a night to remember! Our Neurodiversity at Work team partnered with the Aberdeen IronBirds for an incredible evening of baseball, community, and inclusion. Thank you to everyone who came out, wore blue, and stood with us in support! 💙⚾

A smiling person stands between two IronBirds baseball mascots in a stadium. The mascot on the left wears a blue jersey with the number 75 and a cap, while the mascot on the right wears a blue jersey with the number 00, orange sunglasses, and orange socks. The person wears a blue 'ROARed for Kids' t-shirt and white shorts. Stadium seating and part of the field are visible in the background.Three people sit in a broadcast booth at a baseball stadium, surrounded by microphones, computers, and equipment. One person in an orange shirt and beige cap speaks into a microphone while holding a paper. A large window behind them shows the baseball field, stands with spectators, and a partly cloudy sky with trees beyond the stadium.

Thank you to our friends at CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield for volunteering at Kennedy Krieger as part of their Week of Equity & Action volunteer day! They took part in empathy training, created book pages and care packages, and assembled blankets for those staying in our inpatient hospital.

All aboard! During their recent stop in the Inner Harbor, the Impossible Dream catamaran—an accessible sailboat dedicated to improving quality of life for people with disabilities—welcomed patients and families from our International Center for Spinal Cord Injury for an unforgettable day.

Spend a day in the life with Lainey! She is one of our incredible patients and she shared a glimpse of her time here during her fourth inpatient stay at Kennedy Krieger. With support from her recreational therapists, Lainey and her dad took a special therapeutic trip to the National Aquarium!
