Founded in 1985, the National Ability Center is a 501(c)3 non-profit, tax-exempt organization. With the generosity of private donors, corporate sponsorships, and the commitment of over a thousand seasonal volunteers, we can serve our non-profit mission and bridge the gap between perceived limitations and what is possible. All activities are offered at an affordable rate and scholarships are available, ensuring participation for all applicants.
The NAC staff draws from decades of collective experience working with people who live with a disability and harnessing the power of specialized adaptive equipment, techniques, and teaching methods. Athletes, veterans, children, and families come to our facilities from all 50 US states and around the globe to participate in our transformational programs.
We work hard to make recreation and outdoor adventures fun and accessible to people of all abilities. Our “I Can” philosophy reinforces our belief that a disability shouldn’t hinder anyone from living a vibrant, active, and rewarding life.
The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) is the global governing body of the Paralympic Movement. Its primary responsibilities are to support our 200 plus members, develop Para sport and advocate social inclusion, ensure the successful delivery and organisation of the Paralympic Games and act as the international federation for 5 Para sports.
Founded on 22 September 1989 as a non-profit organisation, the IPC is an athlete-centred organisation composed of an elected Governing Board, a management team and various Standing Committees and Councils. Since 1999 we have been headquartered in Bonn, Germany. The IPC seeks to make for an inclusive world through sport by developing sports opportunities for all people with disabilities from the beginner to elite level.
It currently employs over 130 people from more than 40 countries.
Thanks to the unique combination of ever-improving athletic performance and increasing global awareness, the Paralympic Games are today firmly established as the world’s number one sport event for driving social inclusion. The event boasts a strong track record for transforming attitudes, cities, countries, and the lives of millions of people around the world.
