How Recreation Therapy works hand in hand to celebrate Disability Pride:

Disability Pride Month is observed in July in the U.S. It commemorates the anniversary of the ADA signed into law. This year is the 35th anniversary! The profession of Recreation Therapy plays an integral role in focusing on adjustment to disability, improving self-esteem, understand accessibility and assisting clients to reach their full potential. Our profession not only concentrates within the clinical domain on improved functional skills but also focuses on real life activities and time in the community. We are constantly working on interacting with community members, advocating for yourself, modifying and adapting your favorite activities so that you can feel more like yourself and not just a patient. One of our favorite sayings is “Disabled still means able”. Even though a person with a disability presents with differing skill sets, that doesn’t dimmish them as a human being with something wonderful and unique to offer. Our goal is for a client to take pride in who they are as an individual, with or without a disability, and recognize their gifts and what they have to offer our society. We take pride in being able to play this role and work with so many amazing clients.
