What is Special Recreation?
Providing safe and adaptable recreation for everyone
CUSR was formed by the Champaign and Urbana Park Districts to provide recreation programs and leisure services for residents with disabilities.
We ensure program safety and success by providing quality staff training, proper staff ratios, and adapting programs and equipment to the needs of the participants.

Enjoy our programs and events for half the price!
The CUSR Scholarship Program allows Champaign-Urbana in-district residents with disabilities who need financial assistance the ability to register for programming at half the cost.
