inclusive recreation

Recreation has long been a leader for inclusion of persons with a disability into community. Persons who have a disability can receive the same benefits of participating in arts, culture, recreation and sport activities as a person who has no disability. Inclusive Recreation offers benefits to persons of all abilities in our community. The Leisure Services Department will endeavour to work with internal and community resources to ensure the participation of all citizens in the community in the activity of their choice.

The Community Services Coordinator will link the community with advocacy agencies and or service providers, as well as search for financial and human resources that will enable an individual to participate in a program.
