The Recreational Therapy team is excited to announce dates for Fall 2025 Recreation Is My Therapy sessions! All Temple students are welcome to join. Sign up to ensure you have a spot saved for this semester!
Recreation Is My Therapy is a 7 week project run by senior level Recreational Therapy students. It is free and open to all Temple Students. This year's sessions will be at Paley Hall - exact locations will be sent to students who register. We do ask that students come to all sessions with the understanding that this is not always possible. The first session is an assessment of recreation interests and goals for the semester. The next six use enjoyable activities to support goal attainment.
