National Alliance For Accessible Golf
The mission of the Alliance is to increase participation of individuals with disabilities in the game of golf. We accomplish this by educating the golf industry, including golf course owners and operators, as well as therapeutic organizations and program leaders on the Americans with Disabilities Act and the game of golf. The organization does this through the delivery of on-demand education through our Alliance Education Hub and in-person education at industry association conferences. The organization advocates for individuals with disabilities through this education, publications and interviews and the development of free resources for use by the golf industry.We also provide GAIN - the Golf Access and Inclusion Network as a free networking platform for those looking to play the game and experts around the country who support adaptive golf through coaching or other means, and launched the Adaptive Golf Hall of Fame to promote public awareness.
