The program is the first of its kind in Alberta and one of only eight degree programs leading to therapeutic recreation certification in Canada. Therapeutic recreation uses functional intervention, education and recreation to help those with cognitive, physical, emotional and social limitations gain independence and reduce barriers to wellness and activity.
