Therapeutic Recreation (TR) is a good therapy choice that uses functional intervention, education and recreation participation to enable persons with physical, cognitive, emotional and/or social limitations to acquire and/or maintain the skills, knowledge and behaviours that will allow them to enjoy their leisure optimally, function independently with the least amount of assistance and participate as fully as possible in society (Therapeutic Recreation of Ontario, 2022).
We provide TR services to humans of all ages in abilities, including children, youth, adults and seniors with a particular focus on developmental and intellectual disabilities such as Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Down Syndrome (DS) and Dementia in community, in-home, in-clinic, group and one-to-one!
