Hello friend:
I've been advocating for our profession for many years. ATRA had presented me with a "Recreational Therapy Advocate of the Year" award in 2005.
Here are some things I've been doing to promote Recreational Therapy during this Feb. 2016:

Here are some things I've been doing to promote Recreational Therapy during this Feb. 2016:
- I had given a presentation about Recreational Therapy to a group of Family physicians at AccessHealth in Beckley, West Virginia on Thursday.
The Beckley, West Virginia newspaper, The Register-Herald featured a newspaper article here: http://www.register-herald.com/news/beckley-native-celebrates-recreational-therapy-month-with-advocacy/article_82a5befd-5fe9-56e2-8fc2-84d2508d8724.html
- Next week, I'll be providing a training about Recreational Therapy (with a mental health focus) to the public at River Park Hospital in Huntington, West Virginia. It is also worth one-hour of continuing education. Note: this one hour CE training has not been pre-approved by NCTRC or ATRA, but it has been approved for counselors, social workers, and nurses in West Virginia.
The Huntington, West Virginia newspaper, the Herald-Dispatch has posted an announcement here: http://www.herald-dispatch.com/news/recreational-therapy-workshop-planned/article_39f0c0ce-d6ce-11e5-b72a-47093090271b.html
- I had written a blog entry about Recreational Therapy month that you can read here: http://dannypettry.blogspot.com/2016/02/feb-is-recreational-therapy-month.html
