Our staff, facility, and programs are designed with input and support from our adaptive athletes. One mother shared, “We love Wheelie Club and the inclusion Santa Fe Family Life Center! It’s hard sometimes finding a place for our whole family. Even if there is not an immediate answer or solution, they have leadership that is willing to literally come to a table and figure things out. Even the little, seemingly small, things matter!”
Regular Programs going on include: Push Club, Wheelchair Basketball, Wheelchair Football and Adaptive Clinics
