FALL 2012 It’s school time again, are you ready? As kids head back to school and our after-school academic support and enrichment programs begin, we want to take a moment to say goodbye to Coach Reggie Robertson. After 24 years of teaching and coaching soccer at several PP&R SUN Community Schools and PP&R Community Centers, Coach Reggie has decided to hang up his cleats, and travel around the United States. Congratulations Reggie on a job well done, and best wishes to you in your travels. You will be missed!

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 fully participate in programs offered citywide. How it Works First choose the activity you’d like to do & the PP&R site at which you’d like to do it. Next, register for the class. When registering, let the person know that you will need accommodations in order to participate in the activity. Once registered, 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 that number. 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 at the age-appropriate class. 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. A general program may be adapted using auxiliary aids & services, but the basic structure of the program remains the same. Accommodations are made as needed & can be flexible & creative, ensuring the participant engages as independently as possible. 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.
