What is Recreation Therapy?

Recreation Therapy is a treatment service that assists individuals in improvement of the emotional, cognitive, physical & social aspects of their lives, while using the individuals leisure interests.

At ACCESS of Wilmington, we provide an opportunity to enhance the quality of life of individuals with disabilities through participation in creative arts, sensory play, adaptive sports, social recreation & fitness. We aim not only to increase recreation participation, but also range of motion, communication, self-confidence, coping skills, leisure awareness, & health and wellness. A Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist (CTRS) will facilitate the session. Recreation Therapy services are for participants of all ages and abilities.
