MSU, UM groups promote physical activities for people with disabilities
Physical activity is just as crucial for people with paralysis and other disabilities as it is for any individual, according to spokeswomen for two organizations at Montana State University and the University of Montana.
The two groups – the Montana Nutrition and Physical Activity Program (NAPA) at MSU http://www.montana.edu/mtnapa/ and the Montana Disability and Health Program at UM http://mtdh.ruralinstitute.umt.edu/ — recently launched a campaign to promote physical activities after winning an $11,000 grant from the Dana and Christopher Reeve National Paralysis Foundation.
As part of the campaign, the organizations have compiled a list of fitness facilities and recreational opportunities all across Montana that they say are well suited for people with disabilities to use.
