CELEBRATING ACCEPTANCE

STAY CONNECTED:

We stand for inclusion, acceptance, and equality. We offer adaptive programs geared toward individuals with disabilities and modifications within our programs and services that meet the wants and needs of our community.

The Indiana Governor’s Council for People with Disabilities puts a spotlight on disability awareness through the month of March.

Their mission is to advance the independence, productivity, and inclusion of people with disabilities in all aspects of society.

This mission is accomplished through planning, evaluation, collaboration, education, research, and advocacy.

“The important thing for Government is not to do things which individuals are doing already and to do them a little better or a little worse; but to do those things which at present are not done at all.”

park stewardship

Park stewardship is an essential part of keeping our parks natural and beautiful for years to come.

Protect and uphold the natural areas in our parks by engaging in park stewardship opportunities to connect and give back to the natural resources that form the foundation of our parks.

BIRDING WITH eBIRD

MAPPING INVASIVE SPECIES WITH EDDMapS

eBird is a smartphone app based in the Cornell Lab of Ornithology grounded in one simple concept: the unique skills of birders matter. Document the diverse bird community in our parks with the leading app used to monitor bird species and patterns globally!

Create your own account, learn about volunteer opportunities using eBird, and share your observations with the world!

Invasive species are a top priority in most park systems, communities and backyards. One of the best ways to keep track of invasion and spread is by mapping with EDDMapS (Early Detection and Distribution Mapping System). This powerful citizen science app uses your data to help stop the spread of invasive species.

Create your own account, learn about volunteer opportunities using EDDMapS, and help stop the spread!
