Ontario Parasport and Adapted Physical Activity Summit, presented by the Ontario Parasport Collective

November 7 - 8, 2023, BMO IFL / Scarborough, ON

The 2015 Parapan Am Games and Accessibility for Ontarians with a Disability Act (AODA) provided an opportunity for a community of leaders to come together to focus on enhancing access and engagement to quality sport for Ontarians with a disability. A Games Legacy Initiative revealed the importance and value of moving forward as a united and committed group. From that galvanizing point emerged the Ontario Parasport Collective (OPC), a collective of like-minded individuals, organizations and champions.

The summit was the culmination of the five-year journey of the OPC. It was a mix of plenary, breakouts and collaboration sessions that shared knowledge and brought together people committed to disability sport and recreation.

The OPC is made possible through the support of the Ontario Trillium Foundation.
