Description

Strides for Speech is a 5K and Fun Run perfect for the whole family! This accessible and inclusive race will be held at Joyner Park on smooth, paved courses. Both races are open to runners, walkers, wheelchair-users, and anyone else looking to get active. The goal of Strides for Speech is to support Triangle Aphasia Project's community programming for people with aphasia while providing a space for people with all abilities to get moving. 

Triangle Aphasia Project Unlimited (TAP) is a non-profit dedicated to supporting individuals with aphasia and their families across North Carolina. Our specialized group programs align with various interests and passions, fostering an environment where individuals with aphasia are inspired to enhance their communication skills and participate confidently within their communities. The outcome is the restoration of hope, determination, purpose, and engagement. Discover more about us at aphasiaproject.org.
