Variety's National Mobility Program provides much needed assistance to children with mobility concerns. For children with disabilities, this means having the freedom to go where they want to, either on their own, or if they need assistance, reducing the impact they make on those helping them. With the advent of many new mobility technologies, this access is becoming available to more and more children. The goal of their Mobility Program is to see that they get it.
