Active Living Alliance for Canadians with a Disability
The Active Living Alliance for Canadians
with a Disability is a national network that was created in
1989 to motivate and assist Canadians with a disability to
become more physically active. While an active lifestyle
is important for all Canadians, it is particularly important
for those with a disability. Research has demonstrated
that active individuals can enjoy better overall health,
improved quality of life, elevated self-esteem, prolonged
independent living in later life and increased mobility.
For individuals with a disability, these benefits help make
coping with the everyday challenges of life easier, and can
even prevent relapses of certain disabilities or health
problems.
Tania's Place is proud to be a partner
with the Ontario ALA. Visit their partners page. |
