About this service

Therapeutic Recreation (TR) uses community and activity-based programming to improve wellbeing, physical and mental health as well as functional capacity for individuals. Much like other professions (Occupational Therapists and Physical Therapists), TR specialists use a goal-oriented, evidence-based approach with a focus on recreation and play. While fun is an important aspect of programming, TR specialists also help individuals build, learn and maintain life skills, increase independence and resilience, improve quality of life and help participants find what they are passionate about.
