Join Our Team and Make a Difference!

GoodLife Kids Foundation (GLKF) has a vision for all kids and youth with autism and intellectual disabilities to experience the joys and benefits of being active.

MOVE by GoodLife Kids is a free physical activity and fitness program for youth ages 12-21 with autism and intellectual disabilities, offered by GLKF. Youth with autism and intellectual disabilities often face barriers to participation, including high costs, lack of individualized support, and inaccessible environments. The MOVE by GoodLife Kids Program was created to break down these barriers and foster a sense of belonging through movement.

With both virtual and in-person classes available across Canada, the program ensures accessibility for all participants. MOVE classes are provided at no cost to families, adaptive to individual needs, and provides ongoing participation until the participant graduates from the program. Our highly trained MOVE Coaches and Support Agents create a welcoming and supportive environment, helping participants build confidence with movement, develop social connections, and improve their overall well-being.

If you are passionate about physical activity, inclusion, and making a meaningful impact in the lives of youth and families, we’d love to have you on our team!
