| Inclusive Preferences of Consumers with Cognitive Impairment and Their Caregivers |
| This session will review the results of research exploring the preferences of consumers and caregivers for inclusive versus noninclusive recreation services. The consumers that were part of this inquiry were individuals with moderate and mild cognitive impairment. Inclusive preferences will be compared with consumer age, gender, living accommodations, and past participation in inclusive recreation. Strategies for the implementation of inclusive and noninclusive services will be presented. |
