The Special Needs Dance Party is part of CCPRC’s AccessABILITY program. Launched in 2012, CCPRC’s AccessABILITY program strives to meet the growing needs of community members with limitations. The program provides therapeutically based recreation offerings for people with cognitive and physical disabilities to promote physical fitness, health, wellness, increased self-esteem and greater independence.

Other upcoming programs as part of the AccessABILITY program will include three Special Needs Swim Nights at Charleston County waterparks this summer. Special Needs Swim night will be offered on the evenings of Saturday, June 18 and July 16 at Whirlin’ Waters Adventure Waterpark in North Charleston, and Aug. 6 at Splash Zone Waterpark on James Island.
