for people with disabilities. WE Fit Wellness is committed to offering
Accessible, Affordable, and Achievable solutions to make exercise and better

host Find Your Fit!

 

About National Federation of the Blind of Colorado Sports and Recreation
Division:

 

The National Federation of the Blind of Colorado Sports and Recreation
Division is a division of the National Federation of the Blind of Colorado.
We know that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your
choices in physical activity and recreation. Every day we raise expectations
of blind people because we know that low expectations lead to barriers
between us and our future health and happiness. You can live the life you
want. Blindness is not what holds you back.
