Kelly AFB CHAP Swim Program Helps Handicapped Kids
At Kelly Air Force Base a CHAP swim program brings 95 volunteers to teach handicapped children ages 7 to 19. The effort, started June 1, pairs service personnel and families to provide twice weekly lessons, boosting confidence and social interaction while offering mothers a support network. Families describe improvements in mobility, speech, and everyday activities as children gain trust and join in neighborhood life. The program aims to expand into a full-time effort and a possible summer camp as CHAP evolves.
