    May 28 2024

    Listen to this mini-doc (or watch on YouTube) about the RWJBH Field of Dreams, a state-of-the-art recreational complex in Toms River, NJ, for people with special needs.
    When Christian Kane's car was rear-ended in 2012, his toddler son suffered a horrific traumatic brain injury. Kane and his wife Mary made it their mission to create the Field of Dreams, so people of all ages with special needs have a place to recreate, learn new skills, and socialize. Families say they are also drawn here by the strong sense of community.
