About ParaSport® Ontario

Barbara has been with ParaSport® Ontario for over 30 years, beginning when the organization was known as Sport for Disabled - Ontario. Her passion for sport began at a young age, participating in competitive and recreational sport. "Participating in sports contributes to a healthy and active lifestyle and is a great way to meet new people and establish life-long friendships."

Hi, my name is Daniel Vieira, and I am the Community Events Manager with ParaSport® Ontario. Growing up, I always had a passion for sports and helping others, leading me to study Sports Management at Brock University. After completing my Bachelor of Sports Management, I went on to pursue my Master of Business Administration at Brock. My event experiences include working with the Toronto Blue Jays and Rogers Hometown Hockey Events. I have also worked with marginalized communities through coordinating sport programming for people with disabilities in summer camps, teaching rugby to children on the Turks & Caicos Islands, as well as volunteer experiences with the Jays Care Foundation, the Brock Niagara Penguins and the Niagara Jr. Ice Dogs. I hope to use my passion and wealth of experience to increase access and participation in sport for people with disabilities.
