Part 3 - Line 4a

UNIVERSALLY ACCESSIBLE PLAYGROUNDS: UNLIMITED PLAY IS A LEADER IN THE FIELD OF ACCESSIBILITY AND INCLUSIVE PLAY. WE USE UNIVERSALLY ACCESSIBLE PLAYGROUNDS AS A TOOL TO RALLY COMMUNITY MEMBERS AROUND A HIGHER SET OF VALUES WHILE WORKING TOGETHER TO BUILD ENVIRONMENTS WHERE INDIVIDUALS ON ALL LEVELS CAN CONNECT FOR A COMMON CAUSE. THE END RESULT OF OUR EFFORTS IS AN INCLUSIVE PLAY ENVIRONMENT, SERVING AS A POINT OF PRIDE FOR THE COMMUNITY FOR MANY YEARS TO COME, A PLACE WHERE ALL KIDS AND ADULTS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITIES, ARE ACCEPTED FOR WHO THEY ARE, NOT WHAT THEY CAN OR CANNOT DO. WE CURRENTLY HAVE 67 PLAYGROUNDS IN 17 STATES WITH AN ESTIMATED 2.1 MILLION VISITORS A YEAR. (SEE SCHEDULE O FOR MORE INFORMATION)AT UNLIMITED PLAY, WE LOOK BEYOND THE BARS, TUBES AND HARDWARE OF A PLAYGROUND TO SEE PEOPLE, OF ALL SHAPES, SIZES, AND ABILITIES WHO SHOULD ENJOY THEM. INDIVIDUALS DESIRE TO FEEL WANTED, VALUED, CONNECTED, LOVED AND EMPOWERED. TOO OFTEN, CHILDREN AND ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES ARE DENIED OPPORTUNITIES - INCLUDING OPPORTUNITIES TO PLAY WITH SIBLINGS, LOVED ONES AND PEERS AT A LOCAL PLAYGROUND. ONLY FULLY ACCESSIBLE PLAYGROUNDS GIVE ALL INDIVIDUALS A PLACE TO PLAY WITHOUT LIMITS, BARRIERS, OR MISPERCEPTIONS. BECAUSE THEY ARE DESIGNED FOR UNLIMITED ACCESS, EVERYONE CAN PLAY, EXERCISE AND INTERACT WITH OTHERS. EVERYONE HAS THE LIBERTY TO SOCIALIZE AND LEARN ABOUT OTHERS IN BEAUTIFUL WAYS. INSTEAD OF PHYSICAL DIFFERENCES BEING ACCENTUATED AND STEREOTYPES BEING CREATED, BOTH CHILDREN AND ADULTS FEEL ENRICHED AS THEY SEE AND TREAT OTHERS AS EQUALS.COMMUNITIES THAT BUILD FULLY ACCESSIBLE PLAYGROUNDS BENEFIT IN REMARKABLE WAYS AND THEY MAKE AMAZING DISCOVERIES SUCH AS: - INTERACTION WITH OTHERS, ALIKE AND DIFFERENT, MAKES OUR OWN WORLD BETTER - CONTRIBUTING TO THE WELL-BEING OF OTHERS FILLS OUR OWN CUP - WHEN CHILDREN LEARN TO ACCEPT OTHERS EARLY IN LIFE, THEY BECOME MORE WELL-ROUNDEDUNLIMITED PLAY SUCCEEDS AT RALLYING COMMUNITIES AROUND A HIGHER SET OF VALUES WHILE WORKING TOGETHER TO BUILD INCLUSIVE PLAY ENVIRONMENTS WHERE EACH MEMBER OF THE COMMUNITY CAN CONNECT AND FEEL ACCEPTED NO MATTER THEIR ABILITIES. OUR COMMUNITY BUILD PROGRAMS CREATE A DESTINATION PLAYGROUND THAT IMPACTS COMMUNITIES FOR GENERATIONS TO COME. WE ASSEMBLE A LOCAL TEAM THAT MOBILIZES RESOURCES BY EXPLORING, IDENTIFYING AND SECURING PROJECT FUNDERS IN THE AREA. KEY MILESTONES OF A COMMUNITY BUILD PROGRAM INCLUDE EVENTS CELEBRATING THE LAUNCH, PROJECT KICK-OFF, COMMUNITY BUILD DAY AND THE DEDICATION CEREMONY. FORMAL TRAININGS, WEBINARS AND INFORMATION KITS ADDRESSING OUR SUCCESSFUL MODEL AND CHALLENGES ARE AVAILABLE. WE SPECIALIZE IN HELPING BUSINESSES, SCHOOLS AND OTHERS IN THE COMMUNITY UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF INCLUSIVE PLAY SPACES AND INCLUSIVE PLAY EXPERIENCE. WE ALSO HIGHLIGHT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UNLIMITED PLAY'S PURPOSEFUL DESIGN STANDARD AND ADA STANDARDS.UNLIMITED PLAY UNIVERSALLY ACCESSIBLE PLAYGROUNDS ARE WHERE LIMITATIONS ARE FORGOTTEN, AND DIFFERENCES ARE CELEBRATED!
