NORTHERN SUBURBAN SPECIAL RECREATION ASSOCIATION (NSSRA)
provides and facilitates year-round recreation and leisure opportunities for children, teens and adults with disabilities who live in 13 northern suburban communities including Deerfield.
Serving approximately 1,800 individuals with disabilities, NSSRA participants range in age from preschoolers, youth and teens through young adults, adults and seniors. NSSRA has nearly 500 recreation, spor t, cultural and social offerings available throughout the year, creating new experiences, opportunities for skill development, leisure time, and most importantly, friendship.
NSSRA’s Inclusion support option provides individuals with disabilities the opportunity to enjoy full participation in partner agency programs while receiving the individualized one-on-one support they need to succeed. Through its programs and services, NSSRA removes the barriers that might prevent an individual with disabilities from full participation in the fun and richness of experience that life has to offer.
