The City of Allentown Department of Parks and Recreation is offering free Adaptive Fitness Classes and an Inclusive Summer Camp for Allentown youth. The programs are open to Allentown residents under the age of 18 with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The programs run from mid-June through the beginning of August.

Both programs will be staffed by instructors with Special Education certifications. The classes will be structured and have a 1:3 instructor to student ratio.
