Abstract: A foot support connected to the frame of a wheelchair having a housing having a primary end located opposite a secondary end with a central bore. The central bore of the housing retains a rod. The housing has at least one opening. The opening of the housing reveals a revealed portion of the rod when the rod slidably traverses at least a portion of the length of the housing. A support structure is in communication with the revealed portion of the rod. The support structure supports the weight of a user's feet when a user is seated in the wheelchair. The support structure slidably traverses the length of the opening of the housing. When the support structure is oriented in a position located under the seat of the wheelchair, the rod is retracted within the central bore of the housing located substantially near the secondary end of the housing.
