Therapeutics
Our goal is to provide a variety of quality recreation choices for people with or without disabilities within their own community so that they don’t have to travel far and wide to participate in accessible programming. We aim to increase community awareness, accessibility, and acceptance of individuals with different abilities, and to create a supportive and inclusive recreation environment here in the City of Mobile.
