Did you know people who have a “diagnosed, permanent, disability” are eligible to get a FREE National Parks Pass (that never expires)???
We LOVE our parks pass, as it’s free day use in the National Parks (even the expensive ones) and half price camping in most places.
Who is eligible to get an Interagency Access Pass?
The Interagency Access Pass may be issued to US citizens or permanent residents of any age that have been medically determined to have a permanent disability (does not have to be a 100% disability) that severely limits one or more major life activities.
What documentation do I need to show for proof of eligibility?
“Along with a valid photo ID such as a US passport, driver’s license, or state-issued ID, applicants must provide documentation of permanent disability with one (1) of the following:
A statement by a licensed physician (Statement must include that the individual has a PERMANENT disability, that it limits one or more aspects of their daily life, and the nature of those limitations.)
A document issued by federal agency such as the Veteran's Administration, Social Security Disability Income or, Supplemental Security Income
A document issued by a state agency such as a vocational rehabilitation agency.”
Autism and ADHD are qualifying disabilities.
