Abstract

Over three million children (approximately one out of every ten), who are in school today, have some sort of physical handicap which needs special recreation consideration. This does not include all the people out of school whose needs are the same as those in school. This places a great burden on recreation leaders and departments. A major disadvantage that is hampering the advance of recreation for handicapped individuals is the lack of trained leaders in the field.
