Mission

We are a brigade of volunteers, corporation and community leaders dedicated to creating opportunities for inclusive play, recreation, and sports where everyone participates and belongs regardless of age or ability. We also advocate for disability equity and inclusion in healthcare and education. Not for profit, but for the common good. Our mission goes beyond just giving a wheelchair a curb cut. It gives a communinty a life. The play brigade believes that inclusion, the idea that everyone participates and everyone belongs, is the corenerstone of community. As such, the work we do is inclusive rather than "specialized, and we raise the bar beyond ada compliant. We create awareness of inclusion as a social problem, illustrating how individuals and entire communities benefit when every person has the opportunity to participate and belong. So we empower.
