The SOPA Philadelphia Unified Champion Schools program is in need of volunteers to support the Interscholastic Unified Soccer competition on Wednesday, April 12 at Thomas Edison HS in Philadelphia. Volunteers are needed to serve as soccer officials, line judges, scorekeepers and/or provide general event support.
The Special Olympics Unified Champion Schools program is aimed at promoting social inclusion through intentionally planned and implemented activities affecting systems-wide change. With sports as the foundation, the three component model offers a unique combination of effective activities that equip young people with tools and training to create sports, classroom and school climates of acceptance. These are school climates where students with disabilities feel welcome and are routinely included in, and feel a part of, all activities, opportunities and functions.
