What National Alliance For Accessible Golf does
Mission
The mission of the Alliance is to increase participation of individuals with disabilities in the game of golf. We accomplish this by educating the golf industry, including golf course owners and operators, as well as therapeutic organizations and program leaders on the Americans with Disabilities Act and the game of golf. The organization does this through the delivery of on-demand education through our Alliance Education Hub and in-person education at industry association conferences. The organization advocates for individuals with disabilities through this education, publications and interviews and the development of free resources for use by the golf industry.We also provide GAIN - the Golf Access and Inclusion Network as a free networking platform for those looking to play the game and experts around the country who support adaptive golf through coaching or other means, and launched the Adaptive Golf Hall of Fame to promote public awareness.
As stated on its FY2026 Form 990.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $413k to $284k (−31%).
How it's funded, over time
