Notes

The mission of the Jewish Community Alliance is to provide hydrotherapy exercise programs for individuals with disabilities. Weekly hydrotherapy and informational classes are given with the goal of increasing the participants' range of motion, circulation, strength, and endurance. Through the classes and the emotional support of the instructors and fellow participants, it is our goal that all participants will not only increase their physical well-being, but also increase confidence and self-esteem.
