    SELECTION STANDARDS United States Olympic Committee and U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Veteran Monthly Assistance Allowance Program The U.S. Olympic Committee supports Paralympic-eligible military veterans in their efforts to represent the USA at the Paralympic Games and other international sport competitions. Veterans who demonstrate exceptional sport skills and the commitment necessary to pursue elite-level competition are given guidance on securing the training, support, and coaching needed to qualify for Team USA and achieve their Paralympic dreams. Through a partnership between the United States Department of Veterans Affairs and the USOC, the VA National Veterans Sports Programs & Special Events Office provides a monthly assistance allowance for disabled Veterans of the Armed Forces training in a Paralympic sport, as authorized by 38 U.S.C. § 322(d) and section 703 of the Veterans’ Benefits Improvement Act of 2008. Through the program the VA will pay a monthly allowance to a Veteran with a service-connected or non-service-connected disability if the Veteran meets the minimum VA Monthly Assistance Allowance (VMAA) Standard in his/her respective sport and sport class at a recognized competition. Athletes must have established training and competition plans and are responsible for turning in monthly and/or quarterly forms and reports in order to continue receiving the monthly assistance allowance. Additionally, an athlete must be U.S. citizen OR permanent resident to be eligible. Lastly, in order to be eligible for the VMAA athletes must undergo either national or international classification evaluation (and be found Paralympic sport eligible) within six months of being placed on the allowance pay list.

  • Women in the Olympic and Paralympic Games
    WOMEN IN THE OLYMPIC AND PARALYMPIC GAMES An Analysis of Participation and Leadership Opportunities April 2013 RESEARCH REPORT SHARP Center for Women & Girls Sport | Health | Activity | Research | Policy Foreword and Acknowledgments This study is the fourth report in the series that follows the progress of women in the Olympic and Paralympic movement. The first three reports were published by the Women’s Sports Foundation. This report is published by SHARP, the Sport, Health and Activity Research and Policy Center for Women and Girls. The report provides the most accurate, comprehensive and up-to-date examination of the participation trends among female Olympic and Paralympic athletes and the hiring and governance trends of Olympic and Paralympic governing bodies with respect to the number of women who hold leadership positions in these organizations. It is intended to provide governing bodies, athletes and policymakers at the national and international level with new and accurate information with an eye toward making the Olympic and Paralympic movement equitable for all. SHARP, the Sport, Health and Activity Research and Policy Center for Women and Girls, was established in 2010 as a new partnership between the Women’s Sports Foundation and University of Michigan’s School of Kinesiology and Institute for Research on Women & Gender. SHARP’s mission is to lead evidence-based research that enhances the scope, experience and sustainability of participation in sport, play and movement for women and girls. Leveraging the research leadership of the University of Michigan with the policy and programming expertise of the Women’s Sports Foundation, findings from SHARP research will better inform public engagement, advocacy and implementation to enable more women and girls to be active, healthy and successful.

  • The Risk of Dengue for Non-Immune Foreign Visitors to the 2016 Summer
    Ximenes et al. BMC Infectious Diseases (2016) 16:186 DOI 10.1186/s12879-016-1517-z RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access The risk of dengue for non-immune foreign visitors to the 2016 summer olympic games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Raphael Ximenes1, Marcos Amaku1, Luis Fernandez Lopez1,2, Francisco Antonio Bezerra Coutinho1, Marcelo Nascimento Burattini1,3, David Greenhalgh4, Annelies Wilder-Smith5, Claudio José Struchiner6 and Eduardo Massad1,7* Abstract Background: Rio de Janeiro in Brazil will host the Summer Olympic Games in 2016. About 400,000 non-immune foreign tourists are expected to attend the games. As Brazil is the country with the highest number of dengue cases worldwide, concern about the risk of dengue for travelers is justified. Methods: A mathematical model to calculate the risk of developing dengue for foreign tourists attending the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro in 2016 is proposed. A system of differential equation models the spread of dengue amongst the resident population and a stochastic approximation is used to assess the risk to tourists. Historical reported dengue time series in Rio de Janeiro for the years 2000-2015 is used to find out the time dependent force of infection, which is then used to estimate the potential risks to a large tourist cohort. The worst outbreak of dengue occurred in 2012 and this and the other years in the history of Dengue in Rio are used to discuss potential risks to tourists amongst visitors to the forthcoming Rio Olympics. Results: The individual risk to be infected by dengue is very much dependent on the ratio asymptomatic/ symptomatic considered but independently of this the worst month of August in the period studied in terms of dengue transmission, occurred in 2007.
