INCLUSION SERVICES FOR PEOPLE

ADAPTIVE and INCLUSIVE RECREATION

WITH SPECIAL NEEDS

MONTHLY DANCE

How it Works First choose the activity you’d like to do & the PP&R site at which you’d like to do it.

Next, register for the class. When registering, let the person know that you will need accommodations in order to participate in the activity. Once registered, contact Inclusion Services at (503) 823-4328. If this is your first accommodation through Inclusion Services, you will need to do a phone intake with a staff member at that number. At the end of the phone intake it will be determined whether an assistant will be needed on the first day of the activity to provide on-site support at the age-appropriate class. Future assistance will be provided based on need. The inclusion staff will work with the instructor on how to support you and your individual needs.

A general program may be adapted using auxiliary aids & services, but the basic structure of the program remains the same. Accommodations are made as needed & can be flexible & creative, ensuring the participant engages as independently as possible.

If you have questions about Inclusion Services, please call 503-823-4328 V/TTY. A minimum of 10 business days (Monday-Friday) advance notice is required. The Inclusion Services staff will do their best to accommodate each participant.

The City of Portland will make reasonable accommodation for people with disabilities.

Please notify us no less than five (5) business days prior to the event by phone 503-823-4328, or by calling the City’s TTY at 503-823-6868, or by the Oregon Relay Service at 1-800-735-2900.
