Through a grant from the Governor's Council for People with Disabilities, Splore has established the EYAP (Experience Your Abilities Program) to help children with developmental disabilities engage in inclusive activities that increase interpersonal communication and social skills, |
physical activity and mobility, and ability to be personally independent while engaging in new learning experiences.
Splore has reached hundreds of elementary school children and introduced them to the outdoors, hiking, climbing, dutch oven cooking, cross-country skiing / snow shoeing, indoor / outdoor rock-climbing, canoeing, horseback riding,
cooperative games, teambuilding initiatives, urban adventures, and other accessible recreation activities.
To provide inclusive experiences, student groups consist of both students with disabilities and students without disabilities and are guided through a 5-part sequence of accessible recreation activities.
Ideally, one or more sessions will take place at the school site and several activities will take place off the school site. |
