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 Advisory & Needs Assessment
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.”

CEO, Augusta Sports Council
Capacity Building & Training
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."

Facility & Fan Experience Strategy
We partner with venues, event organizers, and host cities to create facilities and sport experiences that prioritize inclusion. Our approach goes beyond compliance. We assess and optimize the athlete and fan journey – from arrival and navigation to seating, and services – ensuring disabled fans, and athletes experience sport with dignity.
“Dawna Callahan at All In Sport Consulting was a tremendous asset in the production of “Blueprint for Access”, a collective document to share the creation and best practices of adaptive sports facilities.
From the initial conversation about the concept to the completion of the project, the combination of her attention to detail with her firsthand knowledge was a key component for success of the this unique creation.”

VP, Operations Sports & Fitness, Ability360
Research & Economic Insights
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.”

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-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.”
