Happiness By Design
Joy Rooms are uniquely inspired spaces that are thoughtfully designed to help kids and young people living with limited conditions. Each project is designed to impact both physical and emotional well-being.
While individual Joy Rooms greatly impact the recipient, they also allow the entire family to have greater control in daily living. They improve functional needs of the individual, provide a dedicated space for the administration of treatments and motivate engagement. They also provide a space for rest or create hubs for social activity.
​
We create environments that for some kids become magnets of activity; for other kids a place of respite. For all the kids and families we serve, we aspire to create spaces that deliver joy.
Due to our generous donors, trade partners and sponsors, Joy Rooms are provided at no cost to the family.
