We pushed, ran, walked, cheered and got crazy colorful! 🌈 Our annual end-of-camp fun run was the perfect grand finale to Color Me Crazy Inclusion Camp. Thanks to everyone who came out to cheer our campers on — with your encouragement, all 21 of them completed their mile!

Today, we celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Signed on July 26, 1990, the ADA is an important civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life, including jobs, schools, transportation, and all public and private places that are open to the general public, ensuring people with disabilities have the same rights and opportunities as everyone else.

As an organization and individuals, we are proud to continue the work of the ADA in our mission to provide opportunity for individuals with disability to live a healthy lifestyle.
