Our Disability projects focus on facilitating equitable opportunities, lifelong friendships, and resource accessibility for their service recipients. Below is a list of our Disability projects.
Special Olympics
Special Olympics at UCLA has served throughout the past four decades as one of the premier organizations on campus for people with intellectual disabilities. Each week we bring athletes from around the city to our campus, creating a safe, inclusive environment that promotes growth both personally and on a team level. Through both practices and tournaments, we form meaningful relationships with athletes: supporting them emotionally, fostering healthy lifestyles, and working to end negative stigmas.
