| Located
at Indiana University in Bloomington,
Indiana, the National Center on
Accessibility is a dynamic and
innovative leader in the movement
to include people with disabilities
in recreation, parks, and tourism.
The NCA provides technical assistance
to organizations of all sizes
who are designing and retrofitting
their leisure areas and programs
for accessibility. The NCA conducts,
promotes, and facilitates research

education programs conducted at
the Center and throughout the
United States. In regard to golf,
