This is the moment when we need to invest in childhood. The world children are growing up in is more dangerous, more unequal, and more uncertain than it was a generation ago. At the exact moment children need play most—to learn, to connect, to feel safe—the opportunity to play is disappearing. And the resources to fix it are shrinking too.
Play is one of the most transformative forces in a child’s life.
It helps children learn, build confidence, find their voice, and navigate life’s challenges. At Right To Play, we use the power of play to help children and youth break through barriers, discover their potential, and create brighter futures for themselves and their communities.
Through our programs, children develop a love of learning that lays the foundation for success in school and in life and strengthen their skills, resilience and well-being.
