Mission Statement
Rutgers Unified Sports is a Rutgers organization associated with Special Olympics New Jersey that is dedicated to promoting social inclusion through shared sports training and competition experiences. Unified Sports joins people with and without intellectual disabilities on the same sports team. It was inspired by a simple principle: training together and playing together is a quick path to friendship, understanding and inclusion. Anyone is welcome to join, regardless of their level of talent, experience, or knowledge of the sport.
