Walton Foundation for Independence is presenting a new adaptive community event that will showcase the wide variety of adaptive sports, leisure activities and services available for people living with a disability in the CSRA.

“Life in Motion” is on Sunday, March 22, from 1:30 to 5:30 p.m. at the Georgia Regents University Christenberry Fieldhouse, 3109 Wrightsboro Rd. The FREE event brings together local resources on adaptive sports/leisure opportunities, assistive technology, returning to work, behavioral health, accessible housing and more, and is designed for survivors of traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury, adults and children with developmental delays, amputees living with prosthetics, veterans with disabilities and anyone else living with a disability.

The Champions Made From Adversity Bulldogs wheelchair basketball team and the Family Y of Greater Augusta’s Miracle League will also present demonstrations, and attendees themselves will have the opportunity to participate in a variety of adaptive sports on the gym floor. Along with the Walton Foundation for Independence, community partners who will provide information on local activities and resources include Walton Options for Independent Living, the Champions Made From Adversity, Family Y of Greater Augusta, the RECing Crew and others.
