Healthy Athletes

Healthy Athletes® is a Special Olympics program that provides free health screenings in a fun, welcoming environment that removes the anxiety people with intellectual disabilities (ID) often experience when faced with a visit to the doctor or dentist. We not only serve these athletes but also train healthcare professionals who then go back to their practices with increased knowledge of and compassion for people with ID.

Special Olympics New Jersey will be offering all Healthy Athletes disciplines alongside Summer Games in the Brower Student Center at TCNJ.

June 10 – 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
  Opening Eyes will close at 3:00 p.m.

June 11 – 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.
  Opening Eyes will close at 12:00 p.m.

All registered SONJ athletes are welcome to attend Healthy Athletes, even if you are not competing the weekend of Summer Games. Please email Amelia Hamilton at ARH@sonj.org to let her know you plan to attend and come between the times listed above. No pre-registration is required
