We work to make the inclusion of children with disabilities
the EXPECTATION, not the exception.
All too often, children with disabilities and their families find their recreational and social options extremely limited or segregated to special programming. The National Inclusion Project works to bridge this gap by providing recreational programs and community organizations the tools and training they need to serve ALL children in their communities.
Our mission is to make sure no child has to sit on the sidelines, and that children of all abilities have the chance to play, laugh, and learn TOGETHER.
