Education & Capacity Building

We’re committed to long-term sustainability. Through regular case-review conferences, visiting fellowships, and active involvement with the Scoliosis Research Society, we strengthen local surgeons and hospitals, so more children receive high-quality care closer to home.

Mission trips change a child’s life. Training changes a community’s future.

How we create change

About Program

Every other month, our team hosts a case-review conference that brings global spine leaders together with local surgeons to work through the most complex cases our outreach sites will face. In parallel, visiting fellowships bring emerging surgeons from Ecuador, Nicaragua, and beyond into top US training programs.

Through active engagement with the Scoliosis Research Society, we plug local teams into the global pediatric spine community, so best practices, new techniques, and research reach them directly.

Direct Care

Expert surgical teams treat children who otherwise would not receive care, through Global Outreach missions and the US Hub.

Follow-Up

Post-surgical check-ins and bracing support to protect the outcome long after the mission ends. Providing long-term monitoring, clinical physical therapy, and checkups.

Local Capacity

Training and fellowship partnerships so local teams lead more cases every year. Empowering under-resourced clinicians to provide long-term sustainable care.

Through active involvement with the Scoliosis Research Society (SRS).
