Support ASU RT Students' National Conference Trip

My name is Dr. Kendrell Ringer, and I am a Licensed Recreational Therapist (LRT/CTRS) and a Recreational Therapy professor at Alabama State University in Montgomery, Alabama. I love my career! I have been granted the opportunity to continue to work as a Recreational Therapy (RT) practitioner in the behavioral health field and as an educator for our RT profession. My profession allows me the opportunity to promote therapeutic recreational leisure involvement to enhance one's quality of life and to advise a RT program to educate future Recreational Therapy students to do that same.

A few ways I look forward to enhancing the Alabama State University Recreational Therapy Program is through more community involvements hours, to engage in other RT group collaboration projects, and by attending our annual national conferences.

I am sending you all this contribution link in hopes that you would consider supporting our RT program in attending our first National American Therapeutic Recreation Association Conference in San Antonio, Texas from October 17th-20th. Our national conference is the largest conference of Recreational Therapy across of the country.

With your financial contributions, our students will have the opportunity to network with other Recreational Therapy professionals across the United States. We will expand our skills and knowledge of Recreational Therapy content beyond of the boarders of Montgomery, Alabama. This new experience will contribute to broadening the students' perspective of Recreational Therapy through the use of different in-person workshops, small group sessions, meet and greets, therapeutic team-building opportunities, and critical talking segments about professional trends and issues within the profession such as state licensure, research contributions and evidence base programing.

Buzz with the Hornet's Nation as we land in San Antonio, Texas for the first time!!!!
