The Fox Valley Special Recreation Association<br />

exists to enrich the lives of people with disabilities. Working<br />

collaboratively with member agencies and comunity<br />

partners, we pledge to put PEOPLE FIRST.<br />

FVSRA provides a diverse range of year-round recreational<br />

activities to:<br />

exploration.<br />

Inclusion Services for<br />

<strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong> Programs<br />

FVSRA services provide year-round opportunities for individuals<br />

with disabilities to participate with their non-disabled peers in<br />

recreational programs within communities. Inclusion<br />

opportunities are available to individuals of ALL ability levels, of<br />

ALL ages. If you, or a family member would like to enroll in a <strong>Park</strong><br />

<strong>District</strong> program and need assistance, simply request additional<br />

services by marking the “special accommodations” section on the<br />

<strong>Park</strong> <strong>District</strong> registration form. The request will be forwarded to<br />

the FVSRA Inclusion Coordinator, Sophie Morgan, who will find<br />

the appropriate assistance and continue to monitor<br />

progress throughout the program by staying in direct contact with<br />

the individual or caregiver, as well as in contact with the <strong>Park</strong><br />

<strong>District</strong> Staff. Please provide at least two weeks notice prior to the<br />

start of the program date for an inclusion request. For more<br />

information on FVSRA and Inclusion Services please contact<br />

Sophie Morgan at 630.907.1114 or SMorgan@Fvsra.org.<br />
