Justin Voltaggio – Greater Opportunities Graduate, and Special Olympian of the Year

We are very proud of Justin’s tremendous athletic and sportsmanlike achievements as San Jose’s “Special Olympian of the Year”. An avid athlete, he was honored by Special Olympics for excelling as a competitor in swimming, basketball and softball. But these are not the only sports he loves – he also plays flag football, soccer, and golf! If there was an Olympics for video games, he would win that too! 

Please watch Justin's video below and read more about him here!

To address the unprecedented challenges before us, we must actively plan for the intensive needs of this growing adult population.
