本文主要研究者於身障協會擔任志工期間，察覺到身障協會會員們的運動休閒需求，以及小兒麻痺會員大多參與協會所辦理的游泳隊活動，因此激發起此一論文研究主題的興趣。主要的文獻依據分別為身心障礙者公約、活躍社會參與理論和小兒麻痺者休閒活動相關研究。研究目的：1. 闡述三位小兒麻痺者的生命歷程中參與休閒活動的經歷2. 探討小兒麻痺者以游泳做為休閒活動的主要因素以及持續以游泳為休閒活動的原因 3. 深入探討游泳運動如何增強小兒麻痺者身心健康及社會適應。研究方法：本研究以質性研究，針對三位參與游泳隊10年以上小兒麻痺者進行深度訪談法和參與觀察法。研究結果: 1. 對小兒痲痺者而言，在他們幼小的時候，休閒活動機會是被排除的。2. 小兒痲痺者因為有休閒需求，因此加入游泳隊，游泳不止是一種有效的復健和運動的方式，而且促進他們積極參與社會活動，拓展人際關係。3. 持續參與游泳隊增強小兒麻痺者身心健康及社會適應。結論: 對於身障者的照顧是彰顯人權保障的一種方式，對於社會工作領域而言當屬於預防性質社會工作的一環。就本研究而言，小兒麻痺者加入游泳隊活動具有多重正向的意義，游泳運動促進了個人身心的健康也發展了個人社會技巧。如何使台灣更多的小兒麻痺者更積極地參加游泳休閒的活動，是我們大家一致的目標和努力的方向。
