North Carolina is proud to celebrate athletes who lead both on and off the field 💙

We’re especially excited to see SONC athlete leader Kristine Hughes recognized for helping set the standard at the upcoming 2026 Special Olympics USA Games. Her dedication, leadership and passion for inclusion represent very best of our movement. 🌟

Kristine — and athletes like her — continue to show that leadership has no limits.

At this year’s Summer Games, nearly 500 athletes received Healthy Athletes screenings — a powerful reminder of the impact access to care can make 💙💪

These essential screenings help athletes stay healthy, confident and ready to perform at their best both on and off the field.

Every screening is more than a number, it’s an athlete empowered with better health, brighter vision and stronger performance. 🌟

We can’t wait to represent North Carolina on the national stage in less than two weeks! Team SONC athletes and Unified partners will carry each and every one of you with them as they go for gold at the USA Games.

Every finish line in North Carolina tells the same truth: the athletes are incredible.

They show up with determination, compete with heart, and remind us that inclusion isn’t just important - it’s transformational. In the Tar Heel State, they redefine what’s possible.

We can't wait to welcome their delegation to the 2026 Special Olympics USA Games!
