Inclusion Services

Therapeutic Recreation

The Therapeutic Recreation Department recognizes that some people with disabilities may choose to participate in local recreation programs and/or camps with persons without disabilities. The TR staff is here to help support inclusion by assisting other Somerset County Park Commission departments and municipal recreation departments with program adaptation or modification, behavior management support, and staff training. When a referral is made, TR staff will conduct an assessment of a person's abilities then develop a written plan that includes modifications and supports necessary in order for the person to successfully be included in a program or activity. Call the Therapeutic Recreation Department at 908-526-5650 for more information.
