This family-focused newsletter is one way the Sport and Exercise Team will connect regularly with kids with disabilities and their families, along with community organizations and recreation facilities and programs. In this first issue, and in issues to come, we’ll share our research, highlight opportunities for readers to contribute to projects, and create opportunities for open dialogue – all with the goal of getting kids with disabilities more active.
