Adaptive Climbing:

Climbing fosters an amazing sense of community, trust, courage and accomplishment. It can be easily adapted to almost any ability level. Through climbing you can break through barriers and summit to new heights. Whether you have an amputation, spinal cord injury, visual impairment or limited mobility due to CP, SB, MS, MD or other physical conditions, we have climbing opportunities for you! Adaptive Adventures is currently offering programs for children (ages 8+), youth, adults, and veterans.

Costs:

Participant: $9.00 Price includes essential climbing equipment, instruction, and lots of fun!

Volunteers: Registered volunteers assisting with the program are free thanks to the generous support of the Chicago Park District.

Thanks to the generous support from our sponsors and donors, the partnership with Shirley Ryan Ability Lab, Lakeshore Sport and Fitness and the Chicago Park District, we are able to keep these costs extremely low and provide scholarships for those in need.  If you would like to further support our programs you can do so HERE.
