U.S. Paralympics is partnering with community organizations from across the country to create a network of Paralympic Sport Clubs.
Paralympic Sport Clubs are community-based sports clubs developed to involve youth and adults with physical and visual disabilities in sports and physical activity, regardless of skill level. All programs and activities will be based in the local community and are run by the local organization.
With 21 million physically disabled Americans, including more than 31,000 military personnel who've sustained serious injuries while on active duty, this is an important community need.
U.S. Paralympics is committed to working with community organizations across the United States to create 250 Paralympic Sport Clubs by 2012.
