Position Statement on Entry to Practice Qualifications
Since 1996 the Canadian Therapeutic Recreation Association (CTRA) has been promoting the allyship of helping professionals across the country. In fact, this organization was incorporated with the mission of bringing people with different educational backgrounds, from different health-related work settings, together as a collective to resolve common issues. While we continue to promote the value of collaboration nationally and abroad, we also feel it is necessary to shed light on the current landscape of the Recreation Therapy profession.
