Berkeley Outreach Recreation Program.
Iowa Univ., Iowa City. Recreation Education Program.
Presented are duplications of the responses given by the Berkeley Outreach Recreation Program (California) as part of a project to collect, share, and compile information about, and techniques in the operation of 18 community action models for recreation services to the disabled. Model programs are categorized as consumer, client competency, recreation and leisure services, parks and recreation, rehabilitation, and voluntary health agency models. Reported are program services in the following areas: the population served (all physically handicapped persons in the Bay area); primary activities (swimming and gymnastics, cooking, dance, trips and overnights, and wheelchair track and field); primary facilities used (high school pool, university gymnasium and various recreation center and library meeting rooms); staffing (two program coordinators, a lifeguard, two drivers, a swim specialist, an attendant supervisor, a bookkeeper, and two athletic trainers); total budget ($25,550) and primary sources of support (grants from the City of Berkeley); and values and goals achieved through the program (providing the physically disabled with opportunities to become involved in innovative and active recreational programs and overcoming basic barriers in public transportation, attendance care, and activities). A copy of the completed survey form is also provided. (SBH)
