An Opportunity For Everyone
There are opportunities for everyone to be a part of Special Olympics Connecticut (SOCT) and enjoy a meaningful and rewarding experience - as an athlete, Unified Sports® partner, coach, volunteer or as an employee. Special Olympics — in Connecticut and around the world — is about revealing the champion in all of us.
