Backed by $3.4M from the The National Institutes of Health, they are taking crucial steps to combat the opioid crisis, particularly when no one is around to help.

So proud and thrilled to see where the product is gose
Thanks to @move.pediatric.therapy for the review and edits! We are glad to cooperate with you! 💚 Post from @move.pediatric.therapy below: The Testa seat is a great adaptive seat that can go ANYWHERE that your child needs a little extra sitting support. The child in this video is having the best day on the lake because of the Testa seat. It was also the first time his mom was actually able to relax for a few minutes and enjoy her time on the water because she didn’t have to hold him for the entire duration of the trip. The Testa seat can be used at restaurants, movie theaters, at school, on boats, in shopping carts, or anywhere else you want your child to be able to sit independently! #testa #seating #disability #cerebralpalsy #adaptations #participation #inclusion
