The Adaptive Adventure Sports Coalition is a volunteer-based organization that has experienced tremendous success and growth in the past five years. Currently, over 200 volunteers are committed to providing recreational opportunities for individuals with disabilities either through direct involvement in program activities, fund raising, marketing, or office work. This committed volunteer base along with the experience and leadership of key TAASC personnel, has been the foundation for the success of TAASC.
