Special Olympics Canada is accepting applications for research grants!
The organization is looking for Special Olympics-oriented research proposals that promote and support research activities that enhance athlete development, performance, coaching and other areas identified in the Strategic Plan.
During the review process of the application the burden on the Special Olympics community will be considered within and across project deliverables and process.

In addition Special Olympics Canada would support projects focused on knowledge mobilization and making research more available and useable for our stakeholders
