SMART CEU’s Hub Founding Sponsor: Lanai Therapies
“We are so proud to partner with Smart CEU’s Hub to enrich the experience of Recreation Therapists across the country. We founded Lanai Therapies to improve the experience of everyone involved in the world of contract Recreation Therapy. We know that working as a contract Rec. Therapist can be a little daunting. So we started Lanai Therapies to fix all of the pain points that RT’s encounter – from not being trained and feeling lost in the field; to not having a company culture of like-minded therapists to connect and interact with. We wanted to be better; for both the population we serve and the therapists we employ. We know that contract Recreation Therapy isn’t for everyone. But we have made it our mission to change the game and make contract Recreation Therapy an incredible experience for all.”

• Sponsor a Health Fair and include tables or information about all of the ways to incorporate Recreation Therapy into transformative health and wellbeing.
• Create a bulletin board and include information about the benefits of RT and action photos.
• Provide stakeholders with a case study from your organization or practice that shows first hand results.
• Create a theme such as “ReCreate Yourself with Recreation Therapy” and feature it throughout the month in flyers, emails, events, and bulletin boards.
• Wear your RT apparel or get your whole dept. to dress alike on a certain day in February.
The important thing is to spread the word about the many
