Short Description
The Southeast Association for Special Parks and Recreation (SEASPAR) is a special recreation association (SRA) comprised of nine park district and three villages. SEASPAR will be using this funding for their program called Enhancing Adult Growth through Lifestyle Education and Service (EAGLES). EAGLES was formed, in 2008, and currently serves 90 adults ages 18 to 50 with intellectual/developmental disabilities at four location sites. This program encourages healthy lifestyle education, social skill development, community integration, and so much more. Of the four sites, three are at maximum capacity, this hinders the ability for growth due to the facility space, staffing, and transportation. This funding will be used with the intention to build sustainability for the program. The potential grant will be primarily used for staff salaries, as well as enhancing our supply line item. This will ensure purchases of healthier snacks and lunches. Also, fitness equipment will be purchased to upgrade aging equipment from when the program started in 2008. Finally, the EAGLES program will provide participants with fitness instructions. EAGLES provides fitness, yoga, and drum instructors that provide a variety of classes that keep the participants active and moving.
