11/29/2018 0 Comments The Special Olympics - Unified SportsThe owner of ENT Associates of Northwest Florida, Dr. William B. Clark has more than 30 years of experience treating problems of the ear, nose, and throat and performing head and neck surgery. In his free time, Dr. William B. Clark is a regular supporter of several charitable organizations, including the Special Olympics, which has been promoting Unified Sports for nearly 20 years. Unified Sports places individuals with and without intellectual disabilities on the same team in sports activities. Designed to encourage social inclusion, Unified Sports leads to greater understanding and helps eliminate misconceptions people have about those with intellectual disabilities. Individuals participate on teams with those of similar athletic ability, which makes Unified Sports competitive while serving to address intolerance. Unified Sports is growing in popularity, with the State of New Jersey recently adopting a law promoting inclusion of those with disabilities in school sports activities.
