About Us
Our Mission
Red Lion Hope exists to serve underserved communities—including individuals with disabilities and special needs—by providing accessible health and fitness training, education, and support that builds strength, confidence, and long-term well-being.
Our Vision
We envision a world where every person, regardless of ability, has access to safe, inclusive fitness and health education—and where fitness professionals are equipped, educated, and empowered to confidently serve individuals with disabilities and special needs.
Through education, advocacy, and example, Red Lion Hope seeks to transform the fitness community into a welcoming space that values inclusion, dignity, and excellence for all.
​
Red Lion Hope is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to improving health, fitness, and well-being for underserved communities, with a special focus on individuals with disabilities and special needs.
​
We believe that movement and health education are essential for all, yet many individuals face barriers such as inaccessible facilities, lack of trained professionals, and environments that are not inclusive. Red Lion Hope exists to bridge this gap by providing adaptive fitness programs, health education, and supportive coaching that empowers individuals to build strength, confidence, and independence.
​
But our impact doesn’t stop there. We also train and educate fitness professionals to confidently work with individuals of all abilities, helping to create a fitness community that is welcoming, inclusive, and equipped to meet diverse needs. By combining direct programming with professional education, advocacy, and outreach, Red Lion Hope works to transform both lives and the fitness industry itself—one person, one professional, and one community at a time.
