One of Angela Knight’s enduring legacies is that she never let Duchenne stop her son Jack from doing everything he wanted in life. Whether it was creating travel adventures, finding accessible transportation when there seemed to be none, or setting Jack up for successful independent living in college, Angela always found a way to make things work.

We’re pulling together our community to learn about what they do to make life easier to share ideas and hacks with one another with our Knight Hacks Contest!  Families can submit their hacks to showcase to others what they do at home, while traveling or at school to make life easier - such as attaching gaming equipment to a Hoyer Lift for easy playing in bed, using a spaghetti strainer for light switches, and making a tabletop with C-clamps to adjust table height.  What is it that you do?  No matter how big or small, share your hack!

Contest Overview:
This year at the 2022 PPMD Annual Conference, we are hosting a poster contest! We want to showcase the ingenuity of this amazing community, by featuring some of your own ideas/tips that make life a little easier, your Knight Hacks!
