The City of San Diego Park & Recreation Therapeutic Recreation Services program provides sports, recreation, leisure and outreach services to people with physical, mental and emotional disabilities.
Services include therapeutic recreation programs and adaptive sports opportunities. These address the special needs of individuals with disabilities who have difficulty accessing and participating in recreation opportunities offered to the general public.
The San Diego Junior Lifeguard Program partners with the Prevent Drowning Foundation of San Diego to provide a limited number of scholarships. This opportunity for underpriviledged youth in San Diego allows them to be a part of the program and learn from professional lifeguards.
