The adaptive sports program’s mission is to optimize Veteran’s independence, community engagement, wellbeing, and quality of life. Adaptive sports education and application allows Veterans to stretch beyond their perceived limitations.
We work with non-profits to plan, develop, manage, and implement adaptive sports opportunities. The adaptive sports program is for both those wanting to participate for leisure as well as those for competition.
