Athlete Leadership Programs

As an integral component of Special Olympics’ dedication to empowerment and dignity, Athlete Leadership Programs (ALPs) initiatives encourage and support athletes in their quest to participate in decision-making roles within the organization and their everyday lives.

Athlete Leadership Programs help athletes learn how to increase their leadership skills and create opportunities that encourage self-determination and independence in their lives.

ALPs encourage athletes to choose how they will participate. For example, selecting their sport.
ALPs provide training and support for athletes in meaningful leadership roles in addition to that of competitor.
ALPs provide training for existing leadership as they welcome and encourage athletes in their new roles.
