Today is the inaugural National Adaptive Sports Day! This day honors the importance of inclusion in athletics while showcasing the power and purpose of the disability community. April 28th was chosen as it marks the anniversary of the signing of the regulations enforcing Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the landmark civil rights legislation that barred discrimination against people with disabilities in federally funded programs, including sports and recreation.
Here are a couple Charger Press articles to celebrate our school's Adaptive Sports league!
