WHAT WE DO
ALL IN SPORT CONSULTING provides expertise both in the adapted sport movement and disability inclusion within broader sport conversations. As an organization led by a disabled advocate, athlete, and award-winning adapted sport leader, we offer unmatched expertise to help organizations exceed their goals for creating exceptional inclusive programs, experiences, and environments.
Adapted Sport Program Development and Implementation
We provide expert guidance and facilitate strategic connections throughout our expansive network to expand your current sport programs or launch new ones. Further, we develop implementation plans that outline sport development goals, strategies, outreach, and growth phases to ensure program sustainability.
“Dawna’s contributions to the development of our adaptive sports programming have been insightful and incredibly beneficial. Her thorough knowledge of the landscape and connections within the community have truly guided our processes in a strong direction. Her value cannot be underestimated.”

VP, Physical Health & Wellness, Wounded Warrior Project
Strategic Planning & Advising
We have a successful track record in providing comprehensive strategic plans for sport organizations that include board development, marketing, community outreach, and fundraising. More broadly, we also advise sport tourism organizations and commissions on creating inclusive communities and environments to host sporting events through customized accessibility audits of sport venues, hotels, facilities, and more.
“Dawna was and continues to be a huge help for our organization and destination as we look into impactful ways to grow into a more adaptive-friendly community. Her expertise and connections throughout the sports industry have really been an asset as (well as) information she’s provided in her completed accessibility report for our community. Our team looks forward to continuing our work with her as we take steps to be a more inclusive destination.”
Michelle Naval Pippin
CEO, Augusta Sports Council
Training & Education
We provide in-person and virtual adapted sport training that emphasizes the importance of disability inclusion within sport. Our approach is customized to each client’s needs with a transparent and authentic approach that only someone with lived experience can deliver.
“Our team learned tangible, practical tools during our disability awareness and inclusive events training. Given Dawna's expertise plus her lived experience, she brings an authentic approach to her instruction and makes it easy for people to ask tough questions. From best practices in language to the systems that create barriers for people with disabilities to, most importantly, acknowledging the day-to-day experience of someone with a disability, Dawna covered it all within our organizational time and budget constraints and moved the needle on the team's understanding and awareness."

Curriculum Development
We develop and implement disability sport and inclusion curriculum for teachers, physical education classes, coaches, and to help guide planning for community-wide inclusive sport events.
“Finding an expert in the world of adapted sports who has both hands-on and high-performance experience, who is a connector to community collaboration and truly believes that access changes outcome…(that person) is Dawna Callahan. I have worked with her on a project creating inclusive curriculum for PE teachers across the state. Her experience made it so easy to pull her in on a project, give parameters, and let her run with it. I am pleased with the outcome and needed her understanding, experience, and organization to achieve the goal. I am looking forward to the next time we can work together.”

Industry Research & Economic Impact Studies
We have significant expertise leading national needs assessments and industry research aimed at capturing the adapted sport industry’s economic impact to advance and expand the movement.
“Dawna provided groundbreaking findings and recommendations in a national adapted sport needs assessment and SWOT analysis both focused on disabled athletes and sport performance, sport medicine, and barriers to training services. Her research was incredibly valuable as we planned the opening of the Lakeshore Sports Science and Performance Center (LSSPC). We based key LSSPC decisions on this first-of-its-kind data. Because of Dawna’s lived experience as a disabled athlete and professional leadership in the movement, we can always count on her having a finger on the pulse of the movement – and knowing where the opportunities are to grow the movement and implement cutting edge ideas.”

CEO, Lakeshore Foundation
Speaking Engagements & Facilitation
All In Sport Consulting’s Founder and CEO Dawna Callahan has consistently been a trailblazer for people and athletes with disabilities. She has dedicated her career to disability advocacy and adapted sport, and is a frequent keynote speaker, session facilitator, and panelist at various sport- and diversity-related conferences, events, and professional forums.
“Dawna organized and led an esteemed panel at our Association of Chief Executives for Sport (ACES) annual Best Practices Conference in August 2023. The topic for the panel was ‘Becoming an Adapted Sport Ally and Understanding the Benefits of Tapping into the Adapted Sports Economy.’ Her leadership of the panel as well as her own leading-edge input were very well-received and considered valuable by our conference participants (primarily sports governing body CEOs). I strongly endorse Dawna as a thought leader and speaker.”
