ACA Adaptive Paddling Summit

Adaptive Expeditions is a Charleston, SC based nonprofit using adaptive sports and recreation to empower individuals who have physical and sensory disabilities with the technical skills and confidence to maintain active, independent lifestyles.Through hands-on and interactive clinics, workshops, day-trips, and expeditions, participants learn adaptive outfitting techniques, safety-based risk management, and technical proficiency in sport.Participants leave our programs believing: “If I can do this, I can do anything!”  That attitude transfers to education, life choices, job searches, and ultimately performance on the job.Website:www.AdaptiveExpeditions.org
