Over 20 on-demand sessions (educational and activities) available all month! SportsAbility enhances the lives of people with disabilities by promoting active living and providing first-hand access to resources and activities designed to encourage participation regardless of age or ability level. Participants of all abilities learn about the value of recreation and active leisure for everyone – especially people with disabilities.
