Special Olympics Texas mission is to provide year round sporting events and training for individuals with intellectual disabilities. Besides providing sporting events and training, SOTX enables athletes to build their social skills, make long lasting friendships, get involved with their community, and demonstrate courage among their peers. Even though the main reason Special Olympics exists is to provide services for individuals with intellectual disabilities, SOTX also give families the ability to connect with each other to form support groups outside of SOTX.
As a research intern, I am tasked with going through Special Olympics data base and develop an annotated bibliography from the research they have already conducted or conducting. I also attend meetings and volunteer at events hosted by Special Olympics. On the side I reach out to people to volunteer at events because without volunteers SOTX cant hold sporting events for their athletes.
