We're thrilled to share exciting news that expands access to fitness for the disability community: Trillium Community Health Plan has officially approved the Flex Fund request for Specialty Athletic Training services! This means that families with Oregon Health Plan (OHP) coverage through Trillium can now fully cover the cost of training, removing one of the biggest barriers to accessing inclusive, specialized fitness programming. WHAT THIS MEANS FOR FAMILIESFor many families, cost has been a major hurdle to providing consistent exercise opportunities for their loved ones. With Trillium's approval, that barrier is gone. This new funding option allows individuals with disabilities to participate in our personalized training programs without paying out of pocket. WHY THIS MATTERSAt Specialty Athletic Training, we believe everyone deserves the right to be fit. Exercise isn't just about building muscle; it's about building confidence, promoting mental well-being, improving daily function, and creating a sense of belonging. Trillium's decision reflects growing recognition that fitness is a vital part of overall health and quality of life for individuals with disabilities. By covering these services, they're helping make inclusion a reality, not just a talking point, and a proactive healthcare approach. MAKING FITNESS ACCESSIBLE FOR ALLThis is a huge step forward in making fitness truly accessible in Oregon. If you have any questions about how to apply or want to learn more about this funding option, don't hesitate to contact us directly. We're here to help every step of the way!
