History:

Since 1967, Disabled Sports USA has provided opportunities for individuals with disabilities to develop independence, confidence, and fitness through participation in sports and recreation. What began as a program to pull Vietnam Veterans out of hospital beds and onto the ski slopes of California, has since grown into one of the nation’s largest multi-sport, multi-disability organizations. Now, through partnerships with 100+ community based chapters in 37 states, Disabled Sports USA provides year round programming in over 30 different sports, serving over 60,000 people each year.
