The beach is nature’s playground, and we had a blast transforming it into an inclusive venue for people living with neurological conditions, and their families and caregivers, at our 11th annual Surf Away+.
With the help of Ionis volunteers and partners, we facilitated adaptive and accessible activities to engage and delight attendees, including music and movement, sensory activations from tidepool tanks to STEM learning, workshops that included art, mindfulness and improv, adaptive surfing, pickleball, volleyball and more.
Surf Away+ is a day for the whole family, and this year we celebrated siblings and the important role they play alongside parents and caregivers.
We want to extend a huge thank-you to all participants, family members, partners and volunteers who made this a day of joy and support for such a deserving community.
