ISF is an integrated performance-based mentor program using sports to teach motor and social interaction skills. The mentorship consists of pairing children with learning, developmental, or social impairments (our athletes) with healthy, active youth from the community. Mentors engage in all activities with the athlete, as ISF utilizes a site-based mentorship model under the supervision of occupational therapy, teachers, and physical therapists. ISF incorporates therapeutic principles inherent in sport, play, and recreation to foster positive personal, social, and physical growth and development. Your support will be instrumental in giving a child the opportunity to engage in productive activities that foster positive social interaction. The role of the mentor is to provide a therapeutic relationship that helps to foster increased communication/social skills and a positive sense of self within the youth.
