FREE ACCESS PASS TO NATIONAL PARKS FOR FAMILIES WITH SPECIAL NEEDS
What is the Access Pass?
The Access Pass is a free lifetime pass to over 2000 federally owned parks in the USA. If you live in the USA, chances are that one of these parks is near you. For parks that charge admission per vehicle, everyone who is in the vehicle with the Access Pass holder is admitted for free (for individual tours and campsites, there may be discounts, but fees still have to be paid).
This includes sites operated by:
The National Park Service (includes all National Parks, National Monuments, National Historic Sites and more)
USDA Forest Service
Fish and Wildlife Service
Bureau of Reclamation
Bureau of Land Management
Who is eligible?
The Access Pass is available to US citizens or permanent residents of all ages who have a permanent disability. A permanent disability is a physical, mental or sensory impairment that severely limits one or more life activities. In the application for the Access Pass, the applicant must prove the existence of a permanent disability with one of the following documents:
Statement by a licensed physician
Document issued by Federal agency such as the Veteran’s Administration, Social Security Disability Income, or Supplemental Security Income
Document issued by a State agency such as a vocational rehabilitation agency
