Leisure Services.
Iowa Univ., Iowa City. Recreation Education Program.
Presented are duplications of the responses given by Leisure Services of the State Technical Institute and Rehabilitation Center (Plainwell, Michigan) 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 (individuals in Michigan needing vocational rehabilitation); primary activities (swimming, crafts, art, exercise, games, and outdoor recreation and sports); primary facilities used (a recreation building, fields, a putting range, tennis courts, and a lake); staffing (a consultant, an administrator, six recreational leaders, and two aides); total budget ($6,300) and primary sources of support (contributions, fees and charges, and the Vocational Rehabilitation operating budget); and values and goals achieved through the program (activity skill acquisition, normalization, and leisure fulfillment). A copy of the completed survey form is also provided. (SBH)
