Pediatric Recreation Program
The Brooks Pediatric Recreation Program provides youth with disabilities meaningful and accessible recreation opportunities that offer social connection, family empowerment, and community integration to enhance quality of life. We offer both sport and recreation programs year-round through weekly classes, monthly activities and family-friendly special events.
Recreation programs we provide include:
- Adapted aquatics
- Arts and music
- Cooking and dance
- Sports programs
- Respite events
- Educational and resource fairs
All equipment is provided free for participants and families. Our motto is “Play to Live. Live to Play!”
Who we serve
Our pediatric recreation program serves children from newborn to 17 with any limitation/disability, including physical, developmental, cognitive, sensory and social.
Participation process
To register, participants and families complete an orientation meeting with a staff member. The orientation meeting provides an opportunity for us to identify a child’s ability and target goals, as well as ensure an appropriate match with activities.
Once the registration and orientation process is complete, youth and their families will have access to all our year-round programming.
