Special Olympics provides year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in the sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community. Our program, however, is about more than just sports. Special Olympics Virginia's year round programs in Health, Education and Community Building address inactivity, injustice, intolerance and social isolation by encouraging and empowering people of all abilities. Special Olympics Virginia Inc. is the state program of Special Olympics Incorporated.
