Soco's unified champion school strategy is a school-based program that changes school climates to be accepting and inclusive of all students and all differences through unified sports, youth leadership and engaging all students.

Soco's young athletes program is an innovative sports play program for children ages 2-7 with intellectual disabilities as well as their typically developing peers, designed to promote inclusion while introducing them to the world of sport, with the goal of preparing them for future participation in special olympics sports training and competition.

Soco's other programs include inclusive health, which focuses on improving the physical and socialemotional well-being of people with intellectual disabilities by broadening access and quality of care in health systems; the athlete leadership program, including alps university, which empowers soco's athletes to creative meaningful societal change; and our volunteer training and management program.
