Name:
Location: Indiana, United States

I became a Professor Emeritus after serving 29 years as a recreational therapy faculty member at Indiana University. I'm a long-time Hoosier, having grown up in Hanover, Indiana. My RT practitioner work was in psych/mental health. After completing my Ph.D. at the University of Illinois, my first faculty position was at the University of North Texas. RT has been a wonderful profession for me as I have had the opportunity to serve as an author and national leader.

ARROW Website Announced

I thought I'd pass along this announcement that I recently received this from Linda L. Buettner, Ph.D, LRT, CTRS, via the ATRA Educators listserve:

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the ARROW (Active Recreational Resources for Optimal Wellness) Initiative website! Educators please share with your students, alums, and outreach long term care programs in your area.

These materials were developed to help geriatric recreational therapists prepare for MDS 3.0, which will be beginning in October, 2009. Access to the materials is free and available to you at: http://www.uncg.edu/rth/arrow/arrow.html

If you are interested in obtaining Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for your work please follow the directions on the website.
