Vision Statement
We envision a world where individuals with disabilities and chronic health conditions have equitable opportunities to engage in movement-related behaviors that contribute to physical, mental, and emotional well-being. We believe that conducting research to understand experiences with movement among persons with disabilities and chronic health conditions, providing evidence-based training to in-service and pre-service professionals, and implementing community-based programs, are critical avenues for the development of these opportunities.
