 ATHLETE OF THE MONTH

Israa Salem
Paralympic Track and Field

This spring was the first time Israa Salem ever learned about running track or throwing field implements. A school based program organized by the Great Lakes Adaptive Sports Association and supported by World Sport Chicago made trying these new sports a possibility for Israa. Living with a visual disability may be a challenge, but Israa has met it head on and enjoyed her first foray into sport.
