Tuesday, March 19th, 2019

When: 9:00am - 11:00am

LEAP will be meeting with a delegation of 15 adaptive sport coaches and administrators from India who will be in Cleveland for the National Wheelchair Basketball Association's national tournament. We will be sharing information about our programs and services to support persons with disabilities.

Information about the Sports Visitor Program from the U.S. Department of State from FHI 360, "The Sports Visitor Program brings international coaches to the U.S. for a short-term sports-based exchange to explore U.S. society, culture, and history through the lens of sports, in addition to on-the-court sport focused training. Over their two-week exchange program, participants engage in on-the-court sessions for skill and coaching development, classroom sessions on disability rights and sports, as well as explore American culture and society broadly through site visits, cultural events, lectures, interactions with Americans, etc."
