INCLUSION SERVICES FOR PEOPLE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS Within the Americans with Disability Act (ADA) of 1990, Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) provides accommodations to individuals with disabilities/ special needs, so that they may receive an equal opportunity to participate in programs offered citywide. How it Works 1. Choose the activity you would like to participate in, and then the PP&R site where the activity is being offered. 2. Register for the activity. You can do this in person at a PP&R site, or on-line at www. PortlandParks.org. When registering, let the person know that you will need accommodations in order to participate in the activity (online, check the box.) 3. Once registered, please contact Inclusion Services at 503-823-4328. If this is your first accommodation through Inclusion Services you will need to do a phone intake with a staff member. At the end of the phone intake, it will be determined whether an assistant will be needed on the first day of the activity to provide on-site support. Future assistance will be provided based on need. The inclusion staff will work with the instructor on how to support you and your individual needs. Important Details A general program may be adapted using auxiliary aids and services, but the basic structure of the program remains the same. Accommodations are made as needed, and can be flexible and creative. Participants need to register for activities that are intended for their birth age. Personal care is provided for activities in the pre-school and youth category, up through age 12. If you have questions about Inclusion Services, please call 503-823-4328 V/TTY. A minimum of 10 business days (Monday-Friday) advance notice is required. The Inclusion Services staff will do their best to accommodate each participant.

TRANSPORTATION FOR PEOPLE ATTENDING ADAPTIVE AND INCLUSIVE RECREATION (AIR) PROGRAMS

When people attend PP&R programs there are several ways they can get to the different locations. Options for people may be one of the following, based on their individual situation. • Family member or support staff drives them • Regular Tri-Met fixed route services or taking the MAX • Taking the Tri-Met Lift, which is door to door transportation • Walking to the location When people attend AIR community outings, the outings always leave from and return to the same location. The meeting point is the Portland Tennis Center, 324 NE 12th. The Tennis Center is located just south of Benson High School and directly across from Franz Bakery.

It is common for people to use the Tri-Met Lift as their means of transportation. People may be eligible for LIFT service if they have a disability or a disabling health condition and the disability or health condition prevents them from independently using Tri-Met bus, MAX Light Rail, WES Commuter Rail and/or Portland Streetcar service some or all of the time (without assistance, other than from the bus driver). To request a LIFT application packet by mail or fax, contact the LIFT office at 503-962-8200 or go on-line for an application at www.trimet.org/lift.

All AIR programs are wheelchair accessible unless otherwise stated. Staff requests no perfume or fragrances at AIR activities. Community Outing Policy In an effort to keep groups small, excursions include only nine to eleven participants. The outings use one van, which is wheelchair accessible. Staff ratio is usually 1 staff for every 3 participants. A smaller ratio may be available upon request. Participants need to stay with AIR staff at all times. Appropriate behavior is expected throughout the activity. Because of the limited number of spaces available, each group/foster home or day program is limited to three people per trip. You may ask to put additional people on the waiting list. We are not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged items during activities. Adaptive and Inclusive Recreation (AIR) does not allow participants, staff or volunteers to drink alcohol or use illegal drugs while participating, working, or volunteering in activities. This includes community outing locations where alcohol is served. Please remember that all AIR outings are done as a group activity. Participants must stay with AIR staff at all times no matter how independent they are. Because this is a group activity, participants may not get to do everything they want because of the needs of the whole group.

Help us save the environment by communicating with you electronically. Please share with us your e-mail address. You will receive notices about drop-in activities, when registration starts and other important information. 10
