Kid Captain is a partnership between University of Iowa Children’s Hospital and the Iowa Hawkeyes to honor pediatrics patients and celebrate their inspirational stories.

Their amazing stories of strength and determination as they face life-threatening illness and injury, reminds us how truly courageous these young people are. Read more about Kid Captain in Iowa Now and catch up with some of our Kid Captain alums.
