The Wounded Warrior Project’s Physical Health & Wellness (PH&W) program was designed to address health and wellness issues experienced by wounded warriors such as depression, stress, and unhealthy lifestyle. By encouraging its participants to engage in positive, fun social and educational activities, PH&W assists wounded warriors at every stage of their recovery.
Inclusive sports are part of the PH&W program offered to wounded warriors. These activities focus on what warriors can do as opposed to what they cannot do. A great tool for rehabilitation, inclusive sports involve these warriors in athletic activities designed to help them overcome their emotional, physical, or cognitive impairments.
