Providing organization

Handicapped Scuba Association

The Handicapped Scuba Association has dedicated itself to improving the physical and social well-being of people with disabilities through the sport of scuba diving. To improve the health and fitness of people with disabilities by challenging their physical abilities and endurance. To improve the quality of life of people with disabilities by providing opportunities to actively participate in a mainstream sport. To "level the playing field" between people with disabilities and their able bodied peers by facilitating access to a sport that they, and others, thought was not possible. To motivate people with disabilities into pursuing other life challenges (education, employment, travel, sports) by allowing them to achieve at a sport that many people cannot.
