In July 2025, we embarked on a comprehensive evaluation to understand the experiences of athletes, families, staff and volunteers working and participating in their para sport programs. The findings were shared in A Shared Path Forward: A Community Review of Para Sport at The Steadward Centre (report available upon request) and followed by the launch of a 6-part Para Sport Engagement Series. Between November and March, three sessions were held, focused on Clarifying and aligning strategic vision, Building strategic partnerships, and Building capacity and expertise.
These focused conversations included para athletes, family members, staff, volunteers, coaches, community partners, and KSR faculty. With the series planned to wrap up in July, stay tuned for the Para Sport Action Plan to follow. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who attended a session and shared their perspective and experiences.
