| ADA/Inclusion Policy/Special Needs Information |  |
The Plainfield Park District will make reasonable accommodations to facilitate participation in or attendance at Park District programs and activities for those with disabilities. The Park District urges those interested in such opportunities to contact the Park District Recreation/Administration Center at (815) 436-8812 in advance to discuss potential accommodations.
In addition, the Plainfield Park District has entered into an agreement with the Joliet Bolingbrook Special Recreation Association (JBSRA) to offer recreation programs to residents with special needs. Park District residents will be able to participate in JBSRA programs at the resident rate. JBSRA will offer programs at Plainfield locations and will offer transportation to select programs taking place in Bolingbrook. The Park District’s reimbursement policy for special needs programs was discontinued on July 1, 2005.
