Ryan's Case For Smiles' mission is to enable children with
cancer and other life-changing illnesses, as well as their
families, to cope with their illness today, while building
resiliency to thrive in the future. In short, to feel better to
heal better.
At Ryan's Case for Smiles, everything we do is designed to walk
alongside families as they cope with the trauma of a
childhood illness or injury. In addition to distributing over
200,000 whimsical pillowcases to hospitalized children each
year, we have partnered with leading pediatric medical
traumatic stress researchers to provide information,
activities, and tools to help children and their families make
sense of their many different emotions, feelings, and
reactions.
