THE NEED IS REAL
In 2022, CAF has seen a 9% increase in grant requests and a 20% increase in equipment costs limiting its ability to fulfill its mission, to provide opportunities to support people with permanent physical disabilities, so they can pursue active lifestyles through physical fitness and competitive athletics. Science shows that daily movement, even light to moderate activity can drastically improve memory, mental clarity, and emotional regulation. That’s where you come in. Your contributions to CAF and willingness to spread the word will put more adaptive athletes on a path to healing through sport.

According to The World Health Organization and the Center of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) 1 in 6 people around the world and 1 in 4 in the United States live with a disability in environments that weren’t created for inclusivity.

The National Alliance on Mental Illness states that people with disabilities are three times more likely to live in poverty and earn a median income one-third less than those who do not have a disability.

Adults with disabilities experience frequent mental distress almost 5 times as often as adults without disabilities, according to the CDC.

UIC states that teens with disabilities are up to 5 times more likely to suffer from mental, emotional, and behavioral health disorders than adolescents without disabilities.
