Since 2022, Smiles from Sarah (SFS) has strived to bring smiles and healing to children by expanding the impact and reach of child life programs and therapeutic play in hospitals. 

Therapeutic play serves a vital function in children’s medical care, allowing child life specialists to give children tools to develop, cope, and communicate when confronted with illness, injury, or disability.

Therapeutic play can be the bandage to bind a broken spirit or the pill to alleviate anxiety and pain.
