Discover Kennedy KriegerRequest Number 1:
We respectfully request $10 million in FY2026 capital funds from the state of Maryland. We will use the funds to build and outfit a new Innovative Care Center—a hospital designed to support the technologies, therapies and rehabilitative medical care essential to helping children with neurological injuries and disorders regain their lives.
Please Help Us Build This Special Place!
Our current inpatient hospital in East Baltimore was built in 1964. Its old infrastructure can’t support the latest rehabilitation and therapy technologies. We will build a new
innovative rehabilitative care facility and repurpose the old hospital for needed research space. Our new facility will invigorate our East Baltimore community and add jobs.
Request Number 2:
We respectfully request $2.5 million for renovations to our LEAP school and adjacent property on Greenspring Avenue in Baltimore to provide enhanced school capacity and services for Maryland’s children with severe autism.
