KSU Adaptive Recreation

The Adaptive Recreation Program at Kennesaw State University exists to create a welcoming, inclusive community where students of all abilities can come together through shared recreational experiences. We are dedicated to providing adaptive and accessible opportunities that promote physical wellness, social connection, and personal growth. By intentionally integrating students with and without disabilities, we aim to foster collaboration and a deeper understanding of diversity on campus—ensuring that every Owl has the chance to play, participate, and belong.
