leadership skills,clinical supervision,
and health and safety considerations
that are critical in the field today.

substance addiction and therapeutic
recreation service in a detailed and
practical manner. Faulkner provides

therapeutic recreation professionals
can deal with the addict and his or
her family effectively and professionally.
