NWSRA exists to provide outstanding opportunities through recreation for people with disabilities. Celebrate ability throughout the Northwest Suburbs! Join the celebration! The team of full time Therapeutic Recreation professionals and trained part-time staff offer safe, fun and quality year round recreation opportunities to individuals with disabilities of all ages and ability levels.
Inclusion assistance provides individuals with disabilities the opportunity to participate in their home park district program. When registering, the parent of the individual should inform the park district (and NWSRA, if desired) of any accommodation needed in order for the individual to successfully enjoy the program. The park district staff will then contact NWSRA for assistance with the accommodation.
