BIIS provides 40 practices annually and hosts one tournament. BIIS <br /> collaborates with UNC Chapel Hill's "Bridge The Gap" tournament by providing <br /> qualified staff, equipment and event guidance. BIIS coached two boccia athletes to <br /> nationals in 2016. <br /> i) Why is funding this program a good investment for the community? How does funding this <br /> program add value to the community? (250 words OR LESS) <br /> BIIS enhances all community populations by cultivating opportunities for an <br /> underserved population. We emphasize the need for better health options for the <br /> disabled community while simultaneously serving adapted sports programs. <br /> Programming, events, competition and outreach opportunities enhance the future <br /> for these individuals by giving them tools to access success. Through sports, our <br /> athletes gain tenacity, confidence and joy to help them independently navigate and <br /> succeed in life. <br /> BIIS also emphasizes the need for civic participation in helping to bridge the gap for <br /> a more inclusive, dynamic community. By engaging county residents and students <br /> in our services, volunteers and supporters gain firsthand experience and knowledge <br /> into how to empower those living with disabilities. <br /> j) Describe what would happen if requested funding is not awarded at all or if a reduced <br /> allocation is recommended. <br /> Without BIIS programming, there are few to no opportunities for individuals with <br /> disabilities to engage in health related activities. BIIS benefits the disabled <br /> community by offering the only adapted sports programming in the Triangle. <br /> Without requested funding, programs would not be able to run and people with <br /> physical disabilities would not be able to participate in accessible programs. <br /> k) Include any other pertinent information. <br /> BIIS has a $3Million child molestation insurance policy <br /> BIIS staff and coaches: <br /> • Working with children are background screened <br /> PROGRAM INFORMATION 1/27/2017 3:48:29 PM P g c 12 of 2 6 <br />
