“We would like the community to know that AIM not only provides direct service and advocacy, but we also provide connections to adaptive possibilities in all areas including recreation, technology, education, clothing, transportation and leisure activities.”

Abilities in Motion supports recreational activities for people of all abilities and will have materials on-site to provide supplemental information for individuals wishing to continue engaging in healthy, recreational events.

Attendees can demo handcycles and bicycles, partake in exercise classes, engage in a sensory-friendly area, and pick up an Abilities in Motion Recreation Resource Guide for information on additional recreational events.
