National Inclusion Project

Let's ALL Play - This program is an innovative, research-validated program model that brings an inclusive recreational experience to children with and without disabilities. Through training, staffing, and educational assistance, Lets ALL Play gives children with disabilities the same experience as those without. Children with disabilities and their peers who are typically developing come together to participate in recreational activities such as swimming, arts and crafts, community service, physical fitness and more. The program model was developed by Project staff, partners, and inclusive leaders in the fields of education and recreation.

OTHER PROGRAMS/AWARENESS/RESEARCH Power of Play Conference - Held Annually, the conference provides a framework and resources for program providers to implement successful inclusion in their programs. The conference provides information that is beneficial for the program provider who is new to inclusion and the inclusion veteran who wants to do more and/or better to serve in an inclusive setting. Educators, parents, and program providers all benefit from the subjects covered and the networking opportunity with leaders in recreational and social inclusion.

Standards/Accreditation - These programs aim to equip organizations with the tools, strategies, and resources for providing gold standard inclusive programming for ALL children.
