Duke DPT 5k


Our Capital Region sponsored the Duke DPT 5K on Sunday, May 17, when 65 runners helped raise over $3,000 for @foundation4pt through registrations, raffles, and fundraising efforts; Duke Doctor of Physical Therapy students also did a takeover of the @challenge4pt Instagram account on race day to share live updates, photos, and behind-the-scenes moments.

Special Olympics Hosted a FUNFitness Event in June Special Olympics North Carolina hosted a FUNFitness Health Event on June 1, where 107 health screenings were completed. Special Olympics athletes attended screening stations testing their flexibility, balance, strength and cardiovascular fitness, as well as providing education. Approximately 40 volunteers, including physical therapists, physical therapist assistants and students, were present to assist in the health screenings. Physical Therapy programs at University of NC, High Point University, Elon and Duke were all represented as part of the volunteers.


Health screenings through Healthy Athletes disciplines, like FUNFitness, will be available to Special Olympics NC athletes at the annual Fall Tournament held November 21-23. Join us as a volunteer! To get involved with future health events, please reach out to health@sonc.net

UNC DPT Hosted it's 2nd Annual UNC DPT Exploratory Day on April 13, 2024 in which APTA North Carolina was a sponsor
