Description
The goal of our sessions is to host a panel from different institutions that have created and currently compete in adaptive sports at the collegiate level.
Our main goals are for these representatives to recount how they treated the program, what sports they offer, how they continue to fund the program and what this program means to them. In addition, if allowed by the academy, we would also like to host some of their athletes so they may give their personal experience regarding the program as well.
We hope that other physiatrists can learn from this session and become involved in their local universities as well as meet others in the adaptive sports space.
