Mission
IncludeAbility inc. is an organization which promotes the inclusion of youth (K-12) with physical and/or intellectual challenges through youth sports and other activities by focusing on what’s possible, not the limitations.
Team IncludeAbility will provide the expertise for Race Directors and coaches to put IncludeAbility in action.
WHY?
IncludeAbility comes from the inspiration of Trace and Jennifer's son Anthony who has Down syndrome. It has been the inclusion in sports that has allowed Anthony to have fun competing with his peers and growing physically, socially and intellectually.
