BORP Adaptive Sports and Recreation is a Berkeley-based nonprofit founded in 1976 as the Bay Area Outreach and Recreation Program. It provides recreation, sport, and fitness opportunities for people with physical disabilities and visual impairment, aiming to improve access to inclusive, adaptive activities. Operating in the nonprofit sector, the organization supports participation in sport and recreation across the San Francisco Bay Area. Recent initiatives reflect a focus on expanding access through partnerships with public agencies, including a permanent adaptive cycling program in Golden Gate Park developed with the San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department and the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency. The group has also supported mobility and arts-access initiatives, such as BORP for Exploration of Art, and has collaborated with Lyft on adaptive bikeshare pilots. The organization has grown through strategic alliances, including a merger with Access Northern California in 2016.
