“A disability doesn't define us.  It is just a part of us.”

About the Clinic

For more than three decades, the National Disabled Veterans Winter Sports Clinic has helped many of our nation’s most profoundly disabled veterans overcome obstacles and challenge their perceived limitations. The event is held in Snowmass (near Aspen), Colorado.

 

It includes Nordic and downhill skiing, sled hockey, rock wall climbing, scuba diving, and a wide variety of other sports and educational workshops. It is the largest rehabilitative event of its kind in the world and will host nearly 400 participants this year.

 

The clinic is made possible through a longstanding partnership between the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and DAV (Disabled American Veterans).

 

We offer on-site assistance for media outlets wishing to cover the event. For those who can’t be on-site, we offer b-roll, photos, interviews, and pre-produced packages for any of your digital media needs.
