Mission

Disabled Sports Eastern Sierra (DSES) provides adaptive therapeutic recreation programs in California’s majestic Eastern Sierra. Founded in 2003, Disabled Sports Eastern Sierra (DSES) is dedicated to changing the lives of children and adults with disabilities by offering year-round sports and activities, creating inspiring challenges, providing expert instruction using the latest adaptive equipment, and rallying the community to embrace and accommodate people with disabilities. We believe the freedom and exhilaration of outdoor challenges inspires hope, expands confidence, and transforms lives. No one should be left behind simply because of a disability!

About

The organization provides over 500 ski lessons to physically disabled children and adults during the season, allowing them to experience and participate in a sport as a fun and therapeutic activity. We have also purchased adaptive equipment for persons with disabilities that allows them to participate in sporting activities (sit skis/bicycle for persons unable to stand or walk). The organization also helps disabled service persons with summer programs involving outdoor mountain activities through the Wounded Warriors program.
