This book is a result of an output of a Commission of the World Leisure
and Recreation Association (WLRA) to examine the role of leisure and
education for leisure activities among people with special needs living
in the community, and requiring social or health services outside
hospital. It provides a conceptual and practical framework for
understanding the role of leisure education for community development
with a special emphasis on special populations. It will also serve the
reader as a foundation for developing models and programs for leisure
education within community settings.
