From its beginnings as Camp Shriver in Eunice Kennedy Shriver’s backyard, to the first international games in 1968, Special Olympics has been about giving people with intellectual disabilities the opportunity to participate in sport. This participation builds confidence, provides emotional support and offers social opportunities for the athletes and their families. With state chapters and a global presence through its World Games, “Special Olympics is the largest sports organization for people with intellectual disabilities with 5 million athletes in 170 countries worldwide.” Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available https://collections.si.edu/search/detail/edanmdm:nmah_1862943?q=record_ID%3Dnmah_1862943&record=1&hlterm=record_ID%3Dnmah_1862943&inline=true https://americanhistory.si.edu/collections/search/object/nmah_1862943 Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1965 Type The nature or genre of the resource Text Language A language of the resource English Disability
