Adaptive Sports and Inclusive Recreation Initiative
U-M’s Adaptive Sports & Fitness program aims to provide equitable access to and participation in adaptive sports and fitness among people with and without disabilities in the Ann Arbor community. This video explains how the Adaptive Sports and Inclusive Recreation Initiative, funded by the Michigan Health Endowment Fund, embeds an adaptive sports curriculum into the physical education programming at middle schools. It recently received an additional grant of about $650,000 from Michigan Medicine to expand the program from sixth grade to seventh and eighth, and into Ypsilanti public schools as well as Ann Arbor.
