National Therapeutic Recreation Week

Join us in celebrating National Therapeutic Recreation Week! This week we’re bringing awareness to therapeutic recreation programs and services that can help improve the health and well-being of children with physical, mental, and emotional disabilities.

Your child at any age can benefit from exercise and recreational activities. Best of all it doesn’t have to be time-consuming. With a few minutes each day, you can help your child live a healthier lifestyle.

Here are a few steps to help guide your child to a happier and healthier lifestyle:

  • Assess your child’s health limitations and create a health plan that works for their individual needs.
  • Pick one healthy lifestyle goal at a time and determine the steps you need to take to help your child achieve it.
  • Start with minor adjustments and gradually incorporate these changes into your child’s daily routine.
  • Keep your child motivated by rewarding them every time they reach a milestone that brings them closer to achieving their goal.

Make sure to communicate your child’s health goals with their physician to prevent any possible injuries or illnesses.

Providing Targeted Treatment and Intervention

Children with autism spectrum disorder learn and react differently than typical children. Each child possesses their own unique set of challenges, skills, and strengths. ABA is therefore created to pinpoint each child’s individual strengths and weaknesses, and provide the targeted treatment and intervention. Learn more at hiddentalentsaba.com

Autism Awareness Month

All month long for the month of April, we celebrate Autism Awareness Month. This month is meant to focus on sharing stories and providing opportunities to increase understanding and acceptance of people with Autism. Autism or ASD affects 1 in 68 children and often presents itself differently in each person is all creeds, all religions, all races and both genders.  In order to foster more support & awareness, inclusive education is essential. Children and adults who have Autism are capable of so many amazing things and are more than their diagnosis. 

April 2nd is widely known as Autism Awareness Day which is meant to have individual Autism organizations come together all around the world to aid in things like research, diagnoses, treatment, and acceptance for those with a developmental path affected by Autism.

How you can participate in Autism Awareness Month

  • -Get involved with a local Organization; nothing beats hands on learning
  • -Educate yourself, because Autism is a vast spectrum, reading and learning as much as you can is essential
  • -Join in on social media; social media allows for you to “meet” people who have Autism and hear their stories
  • -Donate; research and outreach are essential to helping people understand Autism, anything can help

At the core having this time to focus on Autism, is to ensure that those who are living with Autism can have fully and happy lives as well as educating the public in a meaningful way. Something as simple as a share on social media to something grand like affect legislation are all a part of the journey. Currently there is no cure for Autism however early intervention and treatment, such as Occupational Therapy can greatly improve the quality of life for those with Autism.
