Special Needs Workers

Children with special needs are welcome to participate in any Parks and Recreation programs with the support of a special needs worker. Workers may be required to meet certain criteria (i.e. be 16 years of age or older, etc.) as outlined by the city, or be required to produce certain documentation (i.e. criminal reference check, etc.). In most cases, the program fee is waived for the support worker. For more information, contact your local representative or visit: www.respiteservices.com
