US Paralympics

U.S. Paralympics manages extensive outreach initiatives, connecting with youth and adults with physical and visual disabilities directly and supporting Paralympic organizations with program development.  Increasing the availability of Paralympic sport programming for Americans with physical and visual disabilities, with an emphasis on youth and veterans, across the country is a key goal of the U.S. Olympic Committee. 

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 programs 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 community and are run by the local organization.

With 21 million physically disabled Americans, including active-duty service members and veterans, this is an important community need.
