Reviewing The Progress Of The Partnership Between The United States Paralympics And The Us Department Of Veterans Affairs To Promote Adaptive Sports

Since the early years in our country, Congress has had to reassess programs created to care for our men and women in uniform, our veterans who have courageously answered the call to duty, and their families who have shared in that military experience. Congress stands united in support of our members of the Armed Forces and veterans who deserve the best resources we can mustard to help them succeed in life after they complete their military service. Paralympics sports have been used as a method of adaptive sports therapy since World War II when my father served. Paralympics continue to provide rehabilitation services to our disabled servicemembers who continue to use them successfully and these services have proven to be popular.
