Erin Delahunty, a longtime Special Olympics MA athlete and wellness advocate, was named Point32Health’s first Healthy Hero of 2026, honoring her leadership, lifelong commitment to health, and inclusive sport.

Mary Carlene Mosca, one of the earliest Special Olympics athletes, inspired a movement for inclusion. Her legacy lives on as her family continues to honor her through the Polar Plunge.

From international competition to USA Games prep, Unified teams traveling coast to coast, athlete voices being heard, and friendships formed on and off the field, 2025 highlighted how inclusion creates moments bigger than medals.
