Since 1984, the Adaptive Sports Foundation has been providing services to children and adults with cognitive and physical disabilities. As the largest adaptive sport program on the East Coast and considered amongst the top adaptive programs in the country, Adaptive Sports Foundation offers both winter and summer sports to a wide range of special needs children and adults. Participation in sports gives the disabled individual increased self worth and self esteem. Students are often heard saying, “If I can do this, I can do anything.”
I’ve been here with my daughter on numerous occasions. It is GREAT! She’s taken snowboarding and ski lessons. It is basically one-to-one classes with trained instructors, many who are teenagers with family members with disabilities of their own. It is also very reasonably priced. The organization has their own mini ski lodge near the main building, so if your kid has issues with large groups or noise, you don’t have to worry about it here, it isn’t an issue here.
