Who We Serve
Children
The Adaptive Sports for Kids (ASK) Program offers year-round recreational and competitive sports opportunities for children and youth ages 6 to 20 with physical disabilities. ASK encourages participants to enjoy the outdoors, develop a healthy lifestyle, make new friends, gain self-confidence and achieve greater independence.
Under the guidance of our dedicated staff, coaches and volunteers, we utilize adaptive equipment for each of core sports to provide a customized experience to fit each individual in a safe setting. Each program is designed to meet the specific needs of the participants.
At the core of the ASK program is the Stars of Tomorrow Camp series. These multi-day, multi-sport camps allow kids to play hard, develop athletic skills and bond with other ASK participants, empowering them to achieve all of their dreams and live beyond their comfort zone.


Adults
Adults with physical disabilities are by far the largest population in the physically disabled community. Since our inception, working with adults with physical disabilities has been one of our primary areas of programming. Adaptive Adventures programs are offered to adults of all ages and backgrounds.
Adaptive Adventures is a champion for providing FREEDOM through Mobility to all of our participants. We believe everyone should have the opportunity to get active and be included in a larger community. We strive to provide our participants the skills to become independent in the sports of their choice.
Our programs feature cutting-edge adaptive equipment, experienced staff, volunteers and coaches. Many of our lead instructors are individuals with disabilities, who provide expertise and mentoring to participants. Adaptive Adventures encourages seasoned participants to become ambassadors and mentors within our community.
Veterans
AAMO (Adaptive Adventure Military Operations) provides injured veterans and active duty military the opportunity to return to the level of fitness and activity that they had prior to being wounded.
Engage: Adaptive Adventures collaborates with over 24 VA medical centers, military hospitals, WTUs, WTBs and other veteran service organizations to impact veterans and their families throughout the country.

Serve: Adaptive Adventures respects and honors the service of each veteran and their families and recognizes each individual’s unique psychological and physical needs.
