Description

Our interprofessional team is working to develop an ongoing adaptive sled hockey program at UNE’s Biddeford campus. It is our goal to facilitate recreational activities for individuals with disabilities to develop skills, enhance independence, and provide enjoyment through active recreation. Having access to and participating in recreational sports is integral of a well-rounded life for every person. We hope to create a collaborative experience for all UNE students and for individuals with disabilities within our community.
