The purpose of the Sports to Work Research and Development Study was to conduct a thorough analysis of the role sports activities can play in vocational rehabilitation and independent living programs. New Editions, through a subcontract with Inverness Technologies, reviewed the existing body of literature as well as current state-of-the-art sports and recreational programs. We researched and identified up to five successful sports programs that help facilitate return-to-work strategies for individuals with disabilities; collected data through a key interview approach; and provided a detailed analysis and report of these programs.
