REACH offering Unified Recreation Programs for Youth

Reach for Resources is offering two new Youth Recreation Programs this winter. These new programs are designed for children with and without disabilities to participate and learn together. Reach for Resources, Inc. is a non-profit organization whose mission is to support individuals with disabilities and mental illness to reach their full potential. We do this by providing individualized services that maximize independence, promote community involvement, and improve physical and mental well-being.

Young Athletes (Ages 2-7)

Have fun while improving your gross motor skills playing different games! Young Athletes is an early introduction to sports using focused activities that target mental and physical growth. This is a unified program designed for children with and without disabilities. There is an evidence supported curriculum for this program provided by Special Olympics MN.
