COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS
Find Resources in Your Community
At Access Ability Wisconsin, we have been and continue to be dedicated to stepping up our efforts in addressing access to nature and the great outdoors, lack of leadership and participation in community programs, and finally minimal environment impact solutions to include everyone!
This is by no means an easy feat, but we believe we can facilitate progress in this area through cooperation and community empowerment. We are always striving to make a difference, and invite you to learn more and lend your support.
With our organization’s mission always in mind, we strive to find new strategies for dealing with this challenge. Advocacy is something that we take very seriously, and our team is working each and every day to make a positive impact. Contact us to learn more about our commitment to this cause.
SUPPORT INDIVIDUALS
With this initiative, our goal is to promote great opportunities for those in need. With access to the right resources, people can become empowered by their own abilities and gain the confidence to fulfill their potential. Learn more about our work by getting in touch with our team today.
Our Services: Our focus on individuals and inclusive programming expands to organizations wanting to include people of all abilities. We want to work with you from equipment reservations to education and awareness programs. We strive to connect community members with the outdoors to create positive experiences, build connection to nature, and foster a sense of exploration and discovery. Our goal is to make the outdoors more accessible for all while keeping nature as pristine as possible, so everyone can enjoy the benefits of nature.
EDUCATION
Helping The Community
Our Commitment: We strive to increase public access to nature and recreational opportunities while promoting environmental stewardship from education to leadership.
Our Resources: AAW's fleet of equipment (outdoor wheelchairs with enclosed outfitted trailers and other adaptive equipment) are provided at no cost* to help individuals explore nature and create their own outdoor adventures.
Our Programs: In addition to our programs, we collaborate on community-driven programs and services that empower individuals of diverse backgrounds and all ages. We encourage organizations and individuals to reach out to learn more about AAW's expertise and resources.
For Organizations, we have our coalition package, conduct workshops, and lead important discussions on access, participation, leadership, employment, peer-mentoring, self-advocacy, disability issues, people first language, adaptive products, adaptive recreational resources. The audience can be your top executive and board level, the people you serve, and the general public.
