AAPAR's Councils
The Heart of Physical Activity, Physical Education, Fitness & Recreation
Often referred to as the heart of AAPAR, our Councils are composed of seasoned experts and up-and-coming professionals, alike, in a diversity of physical activity and education fields. Each Council focuses on a particular area of interest. Many produce publications, and some offer workshops for continuing education. All offer the opportunity to enhance your career.
