How can para sport spaces better reflect Indigenous ways of knowing and being?
The Steadward Centre and the Indigenous Sport Council of Alberta are coming together to reimagine Becoming Para Ready - a resource that supports coaches and communities in creating inclusive para sport opportunities.
We’re inviting Indigenous athletes, coaches, Elders, and people with disabilities to share their voices through a brief survey or focus group. Your insight will help shape a more inclusive future for para sport.
To get involved, reach out to Taylor McPherson at t.mcpherson@isportab.com
