Empowering Lives Through Adaptive Sports
ASF is a non-profit organization that provides profound and life changing experiences for children and adults with physical and cognitive disabilities and chronic illnesses through outdoor physical activity, education, support, and community.
Through participation in Adaptive Sports Foundation programs many individuals experience, in some cases for the first time in their lives, that they have a new identity which is associated with a sport and not with their disability.
Let’s Move!
1 in 2 – Half of all individuals with disabilities get no physical activity (CDC). Access to athletic opportunities is a given for able bodied individuals, but individuals with disabilities are often left out of this common experience. The Adaptive Sports Foundation provides a variety of opportunities for children and adults with disabilities to discover a lifelong passion for outdoor physical activity. Since 1984, the ASF has provided 79,000+ adaptive lessons which allowed 13,253 individuals lead healthier and more active lives.
