OUR WORK IN EDUCATION ❤
Students with ID experience some of the highest rates of bullying and some of the lowest rates of time spent in general education settings. Special Olympics Unified Champion Schools® programming helps strengthen school culture and reduce these disparities. Continued federal funding allows this work to grow, and it’s a key reason we’re going on Capitol Hill.

History will judge us not by what we promised children, but by how we invested in the teachers who serve them.

In his 2026 Global State of Inclusion in Education Commentary, our Chairman, Dr. Timothy Shriver, calls this the Year of the Teacher and urges the world to invest in the people who make inclusion possible. Because when teachers are supported, students of all abilities can learn, belong, and thrive.
