Experiential Opportunities |
Volunteer for Healthy Athletes Fit Feet screenings at Special Olympics Maryland Summer Games 2026.
Through the Healthy Athletes Program, Special Olympics provides free health screenings and education in nine disciplines, including Fit Feet, which focuses on podiatric health, lower extremity biomechanics, and proper shoe and sock gear for athletes.
Our Healthy Athletes Screening event will take place at Towson University on Saturday, June 13th. This is a wonderful opportunity to gain hands-on experience working with individuals with intellectual disabilities while helping provide valuable health assessments and support to our athletes. Many athletes experience foot and ankle pain or deformities that can impact both athletic performance and everyday movement. Fit Feet screenings help identify these concerns and promote healthier mobility both on and off the playing field.
