Description

• The Cooperative Wilderness Handicapped Outdoor Group (CW HOG), a regional self-help group, was established in 1981 to provide recreational opportunities for people of all abilities. The program is a part of Idaho State University in Pocatello, Idaho.
  
  CW HOG has established four goals:
  • Provide challenging outdoor adventure activities in a supportive environment.
  • Establish a supportive social network for people with disabilities and able-bodied individuals.
  • Further societal integration by building ties between individuals with disabilities and other community members.
  • Educate the community to accept and value people with disabilities.
