However, existing outdoor programs appear to serve largely White, male populations even though many veterans are female and racially diverse. In order to consider barriers to outdoor program engagement for diverse and marginalized populations of veterans, the present study examined website landing pages for programs which provide outdoor programming for veterans and/or military populations. The study aimed to answer the question: what racial and gender identities appear on the online marketing for veterans-serving outdoor programs? In order to answer the research question, four coders independently coded visual data from imagery found on publicly-available websites and each organization’s associated social media. Three hundred and six organizations which provide outdoor programming for veterans were identified and coded in the present study. Image coding showed that website landing pages for outdoor programs serving veterans present overwhelming White and male images, rather than images of women and racial minorities. The implications of the present study for veteran outdoor programs are that such programs need to consider how they market and present themselves in terms of representing diverse and marginalized identities in their materials. Without modifying their existing materials, female veterans and veterans from racially diverse backgrounds and marginalized communities will continue to face substantial barriers in getting outdoors.","PeriodicalId":45238,"journal":{"name":"Therapeutic Recreation Journal","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135729784","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Though not common, it is growing in popularity as the demand for equine-assisted services (EAS) grows. Recent factors draw new attention and significance to the discussion, including the 2021 Optimal Terminology Consensus paper. This paper left out recreational therapy (RT) service provision. The American Therapeutic Recreation Association (ATRA) Board of Directors commissioned a task force to define the position of therapeutic recreation within the defined service provisions of EAS and the role of the CTRS® in the implementation. This paper examines RT within the newly defined EAS scope. As a result of this work, RT was accepted as a therapy service as defined by the parameters of the Optimal Terminology Consensus paper under “Therapy.” The role of the CTRS® in planning and implementing a RT session incorporating equines using the Assessment, Planning, Implementation, Evaluation (APIE) process is also discussed. The hope is to advocate for and bring awareness to the essential role of RT and the need for further development of professional competencies, training, protocols, and standards for CTRS®s who incorporate equines into their practice as an intervention or modality for their clients.","PeriodicalId":45238,"journal":{"name":"Therapeutic Recreation Journal","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135778528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, compared to same-age peers, children with ASD participate less in physical, leisure, and recreation activities. The World Health Organization considers participation to be critical to quality of life. This scoping review presents the types of interventions used to address gross motor impairments, and the standardized outcome measures within the domains of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), used to evaluate the impact of the interventions. Results produced 17 articles and five types of motor interventions, including land-based exercise, motor physical activity interventions; sports-based, active recreation; movement-based mind-body interventions; equine or therapeutic horseback riding, and active video games/virtual and augmented reality. The interventions were provided by either a single discipline or an interprofessional team, with physical and recreational therapy being underrepresented as team members. Most studies used outcome measures in the body functions and structures, and activities domains of the ICF and few in the participation domain. The results of this study will be important to professionals for planning, implementing, and monitoring interventions for children with ASD.","PeriodicalId":45238,"journal":{"name":"Therapeutic Recreation Journal","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135729983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to explore the impact kayak fishing programs, provided by Heroes on the Water, had on posttraumatic growth in military veterans in the United States. The concept of posttraumatic growth suggests that individuals may experience positive psychological changes after severe traumatic events. Research suggests posttraumatic growth can occur in the form of recognizing personal strengths, new possibilities, relating to others, an appreciation for life, and spiritual changes. Studies also suggest that recreation can aid in facilitation of growth. Additionally, recreation has been considered a complementary form of treatment for veterans, specifically the use of nature-based and outdoor recreation programs. For this study, participants reflected on their experiences before and after engaging in Heroes on the Water using the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory. Though the results cannot be generalized, participants reported an increase in score after participating in Heroes on the Water kayak fishing programs. This study adds to the knowledge about the use of recreation to facilitate growth in veterans and encourages continued research on this topic.","PeriodicalId":45238,"journal":{"name":"Therapeutic Recreation Journal","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135779319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Out of a total of 95 RT academic programs, 54 programs responded to an online questionnaire about the fieldwork opportunities provided to students. This brief report discusses the results of the NCTRC-eligible internship experiences in three areas: Pre-Internship Preparation, Program Eligibility Factors, and the NCTRC- eligible Internship Experience. Results indicated that most programs provide some level of support in finding, applying to, and securing internship sites; require students to have the majority of the coursework completed, a minimum program GPA of 2.0, completion of a 12-credit internship; and, evaluate learning outcomes through mid- and final evaluation reports.

In an online survey, 54 of 95 programs surveyed responded. Forty-four indicated that fieldwork was incorporated in 172 courses. All the courses fell within nine course-types: Introduction/Foundations, Assessment, Programming, Management, Populations/Settings, Interventions/Modalities, Research/Evaluation, Issues and Trends, and Other Fieldwork Placements (such as practicum, junior internship). This brief report discusses findings in the areas of course requirements, approaches to designing fieldwork experiences, settings and populations, and course connection to the RT process (i.e., assessment, planning, implementation, evaluation, and documentation).The findings revealed the majority of courses containing fieldwork are similarly required for graduation, prior to the NCTRC internship, worth 3-credits, and require an average of 12-23 hours of fieldwork. However, the settings and populations CTRS' work in most are underrepresented in course-related fieldwork and several courses reported lack of connection to the RT process. Further collaboration is needed to clarify course-related fieldwork terminology and develop guidelines for all RT academic programs. Implications address curriculum considerations and future research.","PeriodicalId":45238,"journal":{"name":"Therapeutic Recreation Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67738294","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
