Reggio for Life: A Human Approach to Recreation Therapy
At JJRT, we’ve taken the powerful, person-centered principles of the Reggio Emilia philosophy and extended them across the lifespan. Our clients aren’t just recipients of care—they’re protagonists in their own healing. In our spaces, curiosity is the curriculum, creativity is the language, and leisure is the path to transformation.
“The hundred languages of the child never disappear. They simply wait for someone to ask, ‘What else do you have to say?’
- JJRT, on Reggio for All
At JJRT, we’ve reimagined the Reggio Emilia philosophy as a framework not just for early childhood—but for all of life. Rooted in the belief that every person is capable, creative, and filled with potential, we use this approach to design therapeutic experiences across the lifespan. Whether working with children, youth, adults, or older adults, we believe leisure becomes most meaningful when it is co-created, curiosity-led, and deeply personal.
