When division C, D, E, or H mentions an entity that can get direct or indirect program assistance, that includes certain nonprofits. It covers nonprofits that run competitive and non-competitive sports for people with disabilities, including the Special Olympics. These groups qualify because they improve life for people with disabilities.

Wherever division C, D, E, or H of this subchapter refers to an entity eligible for direct or indirect assistance to run a national-service program, that reference includes a nonprofit organization that promotes competitive and non-competitive sporting events for people with disabilities — the Special Olympics is specifically named as an example. The reason given is that these events improve the quality of life for people with disabilities.
