Intellectual disability does not discriminate. Athletes who participate in Special Olympics come in all ages, ethnicities and social backgrounds. However, a significant number of athletes live in urban areas and come from lower socioeconomic groups.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\"\"<\/a>Special Olympics athletes are given opportunities to participate without regard to economic, demographic, religious, or social factors. Activities exist for those of all ability levels, from the highly functioning to the severely challenged. Anyone can participate in Special Olympics if they meet the eligibility criteria of having intellectual disabilities or a similar developmental disability. Neither athletes nor parents are charged a fee to participate in the program, Special Olympics provides free sports training and competition year-round. This is not to say these services are free, they are actually very expensive and only possible because of the support of the Miami-Dade County community. Through generous philanthropy, we can continue our mission to replace fear, stigma and oppression with possibility and opportunity for the Intellectually Disabled.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Special Olympics Florida \u2013 Miami-Dade County
