Special Olympics uses the medium of sport to assist persons with an intellectual disability to become all that they can be - physically, mentally, socially, emotionally - and to become accepted, respected and productive members of society. Our goal is to provide sport opportunity to every individual with an intellectual disability across PEI. We do not exclude any potential athlete because of financial constraint.
Special Olympics PEI is able to provide quality sport programs to our athletes because of the commitment and dedication of our volunteers and coaches who give countless hours every week to Special Olympics.
