CRIT - Children's Rehabilitation Institute TeletonUSA (CRIT)

About Us

The Children’s Rehabilitation Institute TeletonUSA (CRIT) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization offering comprehensive rehabilitation services for children with neurological, muscular, and skeletal disabilities.

CRIT recognizes that a disability requires treatment from multiple perspectives, not just traditional medical rehabilitation.

Our model of care includes the following domains: physical, psychological, social, and spiritual. This approach improves outcomes as it addresses the patient’s and their family’s needs. CRIT’s frequent multidisciplinary team conferences and collaboration amongst all members, set this center apart from other clinics, leading to improved functional outcomes.

In 2012, the TeletonUSA Foundation began raising funds for the construction and operation of CRIT, which autonomously opened its doors as a not-for-profit U.S. organization in San Antonio, Texas in 2014. As of 2021, CRIT has served 4,267 persons from all over the United States.
