The Declaration: a commitment to a cohesive sport, an accessible sport, and a tailored sport

Each of these categories - cohesive, accessible, and tailored - highlights a different component of the work ahead. A cohesive sport, implies one that brings people in, rather than just an elite few. An accessible sport, implies one that is open to all, especially the most marginalized groups. A tailored sport, implies one that provides the resources necessary to accompany each individual person, just as they are.

Anyone who wishes to adhere to the declaration can sign it at www.sportforall.va.
