Recreational Respite is across Canada!

We have started our nationwide expansion serving Canadians and their families after starting in Ontario, in 2008. We are committed to paramount service to all of those that we serve, their families and communities across the nation.

Recreational Respite works with individuals who face barriers to participation in their community due to disability, injury, isolation, chronic illness or disorder. Our skills include being able to identify ways to remove the barriers that exist through various approaches in 1:1 or group settings. We strive for positive change and to reach desired outcomes through person centred recreation. We include the needs, abilities, strengths and interests of every individual we support and every approach we take through recreation. This ensures that targeted goals for mental health, emotional health and physical wellness and life skills are achieved.

We support children, youth, adults and older adults with disabilities, mental health and memory impairment, and their families.

It’s the intention of Therapeutic Recreation (or Recreation Therapy).   Fun and engaging tasks increase both participation, sense of self, role, worth, purpose and success – thus supporting our
clients to maximize their potential. Our service can be provided in any environment in which our clients resides including: home residence, supportive living, group home, retirement homes or long term care.  Since individualized programming is built upon the needs of each client, the goals and objectives of each program will vary, as will program design but always factoring in recreational interests and engagement.
