Return to Play Information
Special Olympics Michigan previously announced that all in-person activities were postponed through Friday, July 31. That postponement is being extended until local/area programs complete the necessary steps outlined in SOMI's Return to Practice Guidelines. The return to play process will be on a per-Area basis, pending approval by the SOMI state office.

What We Do
Special Olympics Michigan provides year-round sports training and athletic competition for children and adults with intellectual disabilities.
Athletes develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage and experience joy while participating in the sharing of gifts, skills and friendship among their families, Special Olympics athletes and the community. The athletes achieve their dreams with the support of caring volunteers, coaches, family members and staff. Donations from Michigan citizens and businesses provide funding for the program.
