Please understand that I

ADDRESSES
Can you tell me the address for NCTRC, ATRA,
etc? Go to the TR Organizational page
ASSESSMENTS
Where can I find assessment resources?
Go to MEMBERS ONLY SECTION, then TRnet and then
click on Assessments once you gain access to .
COLLEGES
For a listing of colleges with TR programs go to www.recreationtherapy.com/trcollg.htm.
I do not have a list of which colleges are better or worse. I do
not have a list of colleges that are currently accredited by
NRPA. Go
to www.nrpa.org for such a listing. For a
ERRORS
If you locate any error at the TR Directory, please inform me at .
I will try to correct the problem as soon as I receive your email.
This includes typos, spelling errors, grammer errors. I won't,
however, correct spelling errors of bulletin board or guestbook postings
made by other people.
INTERNSHIP
If you are looking for an internship site, please go to the members only section and then to the TR Internship Directory. I do
not have any more information than what is posted at the TR Internship
Directory. Please don't ask me to send you an email when I find an
internship that matches your needs... I do not keep track of the postings
at the TR Internship Directory nor do I maintain a separate list.
If you do not see an internship posting for the area that you are
interested in, your best bet would be to go to the library, get a
phone book for the city you are interested in and open the yellow
pages for a listing of psychiatric, rehab, LTC, etc facilities.
JOBS
Please don't email me with request for job leads....
Please go to the TR
Jobs page and many of the major job bulletin found on-line. Do note that
many agencies do not post job openings anywhere. Many times they have
openings and go through their list of applicants who sent in resumes.
Your best bet would be to identify agencies that have RT positions
and send in a resume.

LOOKING
FOR INFO
Where can I find information about -----
at the Therapeutic Recreation Directory? Use the Search
Engine at the Therapeutic Recreation Directory or use the Therapeutic Recreation Directory Index.
I
need info about Pet Therapy? (or other topics).
Again, use the search engine. For
a list of individuals that can help you, go to TRNet found in the MEMBERS ONLY SECTION.
For organizations, go the the TR Associations web page.
If
you are requesting, "Please send
me all you have on therapeutic recreation,"
I urge you to take time to do the work yourself and look through the
Therapeutic Recreation Directory and other links and sources listed at this site.
NCTRC
Please tell me when NCTRC is having their testing...
and where? You need to contact NCTRC directly at www.nctrc.org.
PRINTING FROM THE ACTIVITIES
PAGES
"I can't
print from the activities pages." The problem lies
within your browser. I have printed activity pages from the Therapeutic Recreation Directory's
activity pages without problem from many different printers, browsers
and computers. Some did not print properly and after tweaking the
browser, I was able to print them out without problem.
1st, try right clicking
on the web page, and click print. If this doesn't work, take a look
at your browser options.
If you have Internet Explorer it should
print out properly, If not click View, then Internet Options, then click on the
Advanced tab and scroll down to where it says Printing. Be sure the
box next to Print background colors and images is unchecked.
You can also save the pages
to your computer and remove the formatting so that you remove the
dark background and change the text to black. Then print it out.
You can also cut and paste
the text to your word processor if none of the above options work
for you.
PASSWORD
"I'm embarrassed to say but
I lost my password." If you lost your password
or User ID to the Internship Site, send an email to .
If
you lost your password or User ID to the TR Address Book, you
can go to the members only section and click on the LOST PASSWORD link from the Address Book and your password will be automatically emailed to you.
You
should take note that passwords and usernames are always case sensitive.
That is, cdixon is not that same as Cdixon. The easiest thing to do
is to always keep your user ID and password at lowercase. A mixture
of upper case and lower case is too difficult to remember.
REMOVE
ME FROM YOUR MAILING LIST
To
be removed from the TR Directory's Mailing List, go to the Privacy page and enter your name in the box provided for TR Directory Mailing
List.
To
have your name and info removed from other sections of the TR Directory,
please give me the complete name of the web page and the information
that you want removed by emailing me at .
RESUME
I do not post resumes at the TR Directory... I used to but
it was too time consuming for me. However, I do list links to resumes
that you have posted elsewhere.
SUBMISSIONS
If you have activity ideas, forms, articles, etc to post, please send
them via email or email with attached file. I prefer Word for
Windows format for attached files.
VOLUNTEERING
If you are interested in volunteering with the Therapeutic Recreation Directory, please
contact me... I can surely use your help!
WHO'S IN CHARGE OF THE
TR Directory?
Charlie Dixon. This is a hobby web site of mine. It is not an official
TR site. The information you see at the Therapeutic Recreation Directory is composed of
information people send me. If you see information that needs updated
or deleted or added.... PLEASE send them in.
I sometime get questions
such as... "Please send me all you have on TR." Well, it's
here... on the TR Directory. You may want to use the search engine
at the TR Directory to locate info you want.
I am always pleased to post
articles, examples of forms, activity ideas, protocols, etc.
PLEASE SEND THEM in to .
