Meet Our Regional Advisory Committees

In each region of New York State, volunteers who want to help promote access and inclusion in recreation for people with disabilities are serving as resources.

Regional Advisory Committee members provide suggestions about where to conduct Inclusivity Assessments and how to reach potential Inclusivity Assessors in their regions. Committee members have also assisted with organizing regional events and training opportunities.

We welcome anyone interested in becoming a Regional Advisory Committee member to contact the Inclusive Recreation Center at InclusiveRec@cortland.edu or (607) 753-4833.
