Problem 1: While Cort is volunteering as a cross country coach, one of the parents states" Cort runs every workout the team does. If he does it on crutches, your kid can handle it."Thinking from a recreation stand point should we make this comparison? Does this stereotype against individuals with disabilities? Does this impact inclusion for people with disabilities? Why or why not?
Problem 2: How can mental illness impact inclusion in recreation settings? Provide one example for the depression reading and one from the Lost Angels 2010 documentary.
Problem 3: Assume that you are the program coordinator for a local recreation complex that houses a swimming pool, a gymnasium, an arts and crafts room, and a weight room. How could you structure your programs to ensure that people with mental illnesses would feel comfortable using your facilities? Think about individuals from the Lost Angels documentary, Cort experiences, as well as the depression chapters when answering this question.
