Therapeutic Recreation Month

Governor John Hickenlooper has declared that February is Therapeutic Recreation Month in Colorado!

KADEP staff's Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialists (CTRSs) are Ginny, Michelle, Donna, Beth, John, and Makena.

From the Colorado Therapeutic Recreation Society:

“Therapeutic Recreation professionals around the state are an integral part of the services provided to residents of Colorado living with a disability” said Dan Schwieder, current board member of CTRS. “Therapeutic Recreation helps to empower our community members with a disability to be more independent and to make decisions that will impact their overall health and wellness.” 

Thanks for all you do, TRs!
