Adaptive recreation focuses on customizing recreation programs and activities to accommodate individuals of all ages with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). This approach ensures that everyone, regardless of ability, can engage in recreational activities that foster social interactions, promote health and fitness, support emotional well-being, and enhance overall quality of life.

Principles of Adaptive Recreation

Built upon the principle that every individual deserves equal access to recreational opportunities. By adapting programs and events, we aim to create inclusive spaces where individuals with IDD and their caretakers can participate comfortably and enjoyably.

Benefits of Adaptive Recreation

Adaptive recreation utilizes evidence-based practices from recreational therapy to maximize the benefits of recreational activities for people with IDD. These specialized programs are designed to cater to the unique needs of participants, enhancing the positive outcomes derived from engaging in recreational pursuits.
