We aspire to live in a diverse and inclusive world that gives value to every human being no matter our differences, backgrounds, beliefs, or abilities.
Our aim is to educate on the importance of inclusion in our communities and create recreational, leisure, and sports activities that are adaptive and inclusive to all abilities.
There are over 10 million Americans living with a disability in the United States, and this is the only minority group in the world that anyone can become a part of at any given moment. Some people are born with disabilities while others may acquire them later in life. Whether transitioning from able-bodied to disabled or growing up with a disability, our purpose is to help others understand that being different is okay. Everyone’s life has value and everyone has the right to be included.
