We proudly announce the launch of our Just for Kids! program…

Posted on: October 16th, 2011 by Amy MacFarlane

Our Just for Kids program involves the design and implementation of therapeutic recreation programs that can contribute greatly to a child’s growth and help with a variety of social, motor, physical and cognitive skills. Our team will identify the specific goals and objectives specifically beneficial to the child’s needs and create a program that will encourage positive participation at home, school and in the community.

Our program supports children who are 5-18 years of age and are living with:
Autism spectrum disorders
Down syndrome
Acquired brain injury
Learning disabilities
Cerebral palsy

What are the benefits of therapeutic recreation for children with special needs?

Stronger social skills
Life-long leisure skills
Healthy active lifestyles
Confidence and self-esteem
Increased independence
Improved quality of life
Self control
Enhanced physical abilities

Therapeutic recreation can offer an extremely beneficial extension of traditional therapy services involving the child, their parents or care givers. Our team can assist to help build family unity, promote adjustment to disability and advocate for families needs. Visit our NEW Just for Kids section
