Vermont has a local chapter of AMBUCS, a national organization dedicated to providing mobility and independence for children with disabilities. These special bikes, called Amtrykes, are able to be adapted for each child's movement challenges, with special seating, trunk supports, back supports, footplates, and hand cranks. The Vermont Friends Chapter of AMBUCS is a 501 (c) (3) organization and vo

The need in Vermont is great as the 2015 Cornell University Disability Status Report for Vermont reported that 500 children between the ages of 5-15 have an ambulatory disability.
