The "A Menu for Success: Recreation for All" cookbook is a product of a cooperative project by students of the NH-IOD Leadership Program of 2006-2007. After many
months of hard work and research we have developed a menu for Inclusive Community Recreation and After-School Programs. The recipes mix commitment and determination with suggestions for program development. Take from these recipes what you need to create your own Plan for an Inclusive Community Recreation or After-School Program that suits your tastes and needs. Keeping in mind that parents, schools and the programs must work together to make it happen!
Kids with disabilities are very interested in participating in community recreation programs. Many individuals, however, are unable to participate because of inadequate skills and lack of support. The appropriate use of free time is a skill which must be learned!
Our Recipes are based on information collected from a variety of sources including family, friends, personal experiences, interviews with recreation departments, local organizations, schools, magazine articles, newsletter publication and adaptive equipment companies. References can be found in the Resources Section of this cookbook.
