Today, we honor the 33rd anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act and celebrate the groundbreaking of America’s first Universal Park – Moss Universal Park will redevelop a Milwaukee County Park into the first universally inclusive park in the nation. The park will remain a county park.
Together with our partners at Milwaukee County and IMPACT Parks, The Ability Center is setting a new standard for inclusive recreation and we look forward to providing opportunities for all members of our community to be able to come together in this 18-acre park and experience universally inclusive trails, playgrounds, fitness opportunities, baseball fields and more.
