Mission
BORP’s Mission
BORP empowers youth and adults with mobility and vision disabilities through sports, fitness, and recreational programs that foster independence, health, community, and belonging.
Who We Serve
Based in Berkeley, CA, BORP is the only organization in the San Francisco Bay Area region that provides a comprehensive menu of adaptive sports, fitness and recreation programs for people with physical disabilities.
Some of our programs target specific groups such as veterans or individuals with spinal cord injuries. Our youth program includes several team sports as well as a host of other activities designed for children, youth and families. With the launch of our virtual fitness program in 2020, BORP now serves individuals throughout the United States and beyond.
