Playworks is so proud of the work that we’ve been doing to help a generation of kids, ensuring every child feels included, is active, and builds valuable social and emotional skills through play. Like many nonprofits, we’ve had to adjust to the new reality caused by the coronavirus pandemic. This means we had to make tough decisions to ensure we can be there for kids for years to come.
Due to financial uncertainty, we had to reduce our Playworks team, including staff and AmeriCorps members, impacting every community we serve. As a result, our Maryland office has closed.

Our commitment is to continue offering services in this community moving forward. Schools in our community can access Playworks PRO (professional training services), PlayworksU (online training), and other online tools in the 2020-2021 school year.

We encourage you to follow our National social media account Playworks for future updates as this account will be inactive.

We appreciate your ongoing support and look forward to playing with you again soon.

We believe in the power of play to bring out the best in every kid.

Instead of going back to class energized and ready to learn after recess, kids often return upset and unable to focus. We can change this. At a great recess:

Kids are their best: Kids bring out the best in themselves and each other. They learn the value of fair play, compassion, and respect. They practice key social and emotional skills. Hear how from a former Playworks principal

Kids become leaders: They run their own games and settle their disputes quickly (we recommend rock, paper, scissors) because getting along is more fun. Watch our Junior Coaches lead the way

Kids choose to be active: When all students are included and all students know how to play popular games, every child has the opportunity to discover the joy of active play.
