Do participants receiving Inclusion Services receive exceptions to basic recreation program requirements?

Participants must be able to meet the minimum eligibility requirements. Reasonable accommodations may be used to assist a participant in meeting the minimum eligibility requirements. Regardless of disability, participants must be able to meet the minimum requirements for age, capacity, and fee.

Age override request on the basis of disability will not be approved, unless participants without disabilities are also granted age overrides on a case-by-case basis. Age override request will only be approved if the program is still age/grade appropriate. For example, a 15 year-old will not be approved for participation in a program designed for 5-7 year-old children regardless of cognitive or developmental abilities.
