The Special Olympics host year round training in Olympic-like sports for disabled children and adults. It was started in the early 1960's by Eunice Kennedy Shirver as a day camp for children with developmental disabilities. The first Special Olympics was held in 1968 in Chicago with 1000 participants from 26 states and Canada. It is now one of the most successful organizations for sports and volunteering, and has over 149 countries involved.
In Northern California, specifically, we have over 13,000 athletes and a variety of sports events and training that happens all year round.
