With the theme of NDPR 2009’s “Tungo sa Katuparan ng Karapatan ng PWDs”, Cavite Chapters ( ASP Bacoor, ASP Dasmariñas, ASP Tanza, ASP Trece Martires and ASP Molino) headed by Bacoor Chapter President, Jan Peña celebrated the week with many activities lined up for all members to enjoy.

Another exciting activity of the Cavite Chapters was their Special Mini-Olympics games and Sports that was hosted by The Orchard Golf and Country Club in Dasmariñas, Cavite. More than just games and thrills, the Cavite Special Mini-Olympics is a demonstration of collective love, strength and will of people drawn together by a common aspiration to enrich the lives of the differently-abled citizens in the province of Cavite.
