Happy Kwanzaa!

As we mark the start of Kwanzaa, Therapeutic Recreation Ontario celebrates the rich cultural traditions of African heritage and the seven guiding principles—unity, self-determination, collective work, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith.

These principles deeply align with our ongoing commitment to DEIB, especially as we work to build therapeutic recreation environments where every person’s identity, culture, and lived experience is honoured.

May this Kwanzaa bring community connection, cultural pride, and moments of joy.

Happy Hanukkah!

As the Festival of Lights begins, Therapeutic Recreation Ontario celebrates with our Jewish community and all who honour this meaningful tradition.

Hanukkah reminds us of resilience, hope, and the strength that comes from community—values that guide our work in creating inclusive recreation spaces. This season, we reaffirm our commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) by ensuring individuals of all cultural and spiritual backgrounds feel seen, respected, and supported in their therapeutic recreation experiences.

Wishing everyone celebrating a season filled with warmth, light, and connection.

December 3rd marks International Day of Persons With Disabilities. A day to celebrate inclusion and advocate for equality worldwide.

As Recreation Therapists, we must address the disparities in access to inclusive recreational spaces due to physical, social and systemic barriers. By fostering environments that prioritize accessibility, equity and belonging, we can ensure everyone has the opportunity to benefit from recreation and leisure. Let's work together to build spaces and communities where all abilities are embraced and celebrated.
