community organizations, hosts Therapeutic and Recreation Day Programs throughout the city. This service represents three major areas of specialized
programming.

3.Recreation participation

Social/Recreation Programs
Programs are offered throughout various community centres giving children, youth and adults with special needs, the opportunity to participate in year round
programs that provide recreation and social programming. The social/recreation programs take place throughout the city during the day, evening and weekends.
The programs include a wide range of options: community outings, social clubs, fitness, aquatics, summer camps for children, youth and adults, health and
wellness and other leisure activities.
The City of Ottawa, with funding from the Ontario Ministry of Health Promotion – is offering a Shared Care After School Program to Children and Youth with
Special Needs. The After School Program will be offered across the city and will maintain a 1:3 ratio. This project promotes physical fitness, healthy eating and
nutrition. If you would like more information please contact the After School
Diane Cyr, Portfolio Coordinator East District at 613-580-2424 ext. 29300.
Tactile Signage and Wayfinding Maps Program
The City of Ottawa initiated the Tactile Signage Program and introduced the first tactile wayfinding map at the Walter Baker Sports Centre in an ongoing effort to
remove barriers and increase access to City facilities. The City is phasing in the use of standardized, high-contrast Tactile signs in all City of Ottawa public
facilities to help visitors find what they are looking for. The strategic placement and design of these signs is guided by Canadian Standards Association (CSA)
Standard B651-04 (Accessible Design for the Built Environment) and the City of Ottawa’s Visual Identity Standards. Tactile maps are designed for people with
visual impairments; however the map is easy and beneficial for everyone. The wayfinding map is similar to “You are here” display at shopping centre but is
placed lower to the floor and is mounted on a podium to facilitate access to everyone.
Your feedback is encouraged at the Walter Baker Sports Centre customer service desk, or by emailing [email protected].

Services d’intégration
Nous tentons constamment de favoriser l’intégration des personnes handicapées aux programmes offerts par le Service des parcs, des loisirs et de la culture, et
conformément à cet engagement, nous nous sommes assurés de la présence sur place de coordonnateurs de portefeuille, Personnes ayant des besoins
spéciaux. Au moyen d’un processus d’évaluation des loisirs et d’aiguillage, ces coordonnateurs aident les participants à choisir le programme qui leur convient le
mieux, ainsi qu’à déterminer le degré de soutien requis.
Personnes de soutien
Les personnes de soutien qui accompagnent les personnes ayant des besoins spéciaux doivent remplir le formulaire de consentement requis avant le début du
programme, et pourraient devoir payer des droits d’entrée en vertu des Normes d’accessibilité pour les services à la clientèle, Règl de l’Ont 429/07,
conformément à la Loi de 2005 sur l’accessibilité pour les personnes handicapées de l’Ontario, L.O. 2005, chapitre 11. Le traitement des demandes de soutien
des communications pour les programmes offerts par le Service des parcs, des loisirs et de la culture de la Ville d’Ottawa nécessite un délai de 2 semaines.
Veuillez envoyer toutes les demandes à Donna Quiggin, gestionnaire de portefeuille, Besoins spéciaux à l’échelle de la ville, au 613-580-2424, poste 29289.
Programmes de loisirs thérapeutiques
La Ville d’Ottawa, en collaboration avec la Coordination des services du ministère de la Santé et des Soins de longue durée, le Centre de soins pour enfants
d’Ottawa et plusieurs organismes communautaires, organise des camps de jour thérapeutiques et récréatifs un peu partout dans la ville. Les activités offertes
portent sur trois composantes clés des programmes spécialisés.
1.Traitement
Le traitement vise à améliorer les capacités fonctionnelles et comportementales du participant.
2.Initiation aux loisirs
Ici, l’accent est mis sur l’acquisition de connaissances, d’aptitudes et de comportements ayant trait aux loisirs.
3.Participation aux loisirs
Le participant acquiert de l’expérience dans le cadre d’activités de loisirs structurées en groupe.
Les programmes de jour actuellement offerts sont le SAAC (Programme de soutien pour l’amélioration de l’apprentissage dans la collectivité), le programme
VARIETY East and West à l’intention des adultes présentant un retard de développement, ainsi que le programme Rendez-vous, pour les francophones. Pour de
plus amples renseignements sur ces programmes, veuillez communiquer avec la Coordination des services au 613-748-1788. Pour le PATC (Programme pour
les personnes ayant subi un traumatisme crânien) ainsi que pour le programme SPIRIT (à l’intention des enfants ayant une santé fragile), veuillez composer le
613-580-2424, poste 29320.
Pour obtenir des renseignements généraux, veuillez communiquer avec l’agent de programme, Besoins spéciaux à l’échelle de ville, au 613-580-2424,
poste 29283.
Programmes sociaux et récréatifs
Différents programmes mis en œuvre dans divers centres communautaires donnent aux personnes ayant des besoins spéciaux – qu’elles aient 7 ou 77 ans –
l’occasion de prendre part à des programmes récréatifs et sociaux tout au long de l’année. Ces programmes sont offerts le jour, le soir et la fin de semaine, à
divers endroits de la ville. On propose une grande variété d’activités, notamment des sorties dans la ville, des associations amicales, du conditionnement
physique, des activités aquatiques, des camps d’été pour les enfants, les jeunes et les adultes, des programmes de santé et de mieux-être et d’autres activités
de loisirs. La Ville d’Ottawa, avec l’aide financière du ministère de la Promotion de la santé, offre le Programme de soins partagés après l’école, à l’intention des
enfants et des jeunes ayant des besoins spéciaux. Ce programme est offert à l’échelle de la ville et respecte un ratio de 1:3. Il vise à promouvoir l’activité
physique, la saine alimentation et la nutrition. Pour obtenir plus de renseignements, veuillez communiquer avec Diane Cyr, coordonnatrice de portefeuille, district
Est, au 613-580-2424, poste 29300.
Programme de signalisation tactile et installation de cartes d’orientation tactiles
La Ville d’Ottawa a mis en œuvre le programme de signalisation tactile et a installé une première carte d’orientation tactile au Centre sportif Walter-Baker, dans
le cadre des efforts qu’elle déploie en permanence pour éliminer les obstacles et améliorer l’accès à ses installations. La Ville d’Ottawa prévoit l’installation
progressive de panneaux tactiles normalisés à contraste élevé dans toutes ses installations afin d’aider les visiteurs à trouver ce qu’ils cherchent. L’emplacement
et l’interface de ces panneaux sont fondés sur la norme de l’Association canadienne de normalisation (CSA) B651-04 (accessibilité de l’environnement bâti) et
sur les normes de l’identité visuelle de la Ville d’Ottawa. Bien que les cartes tactiles soient conçues pour les personnes ayant une déficience visuelle, elles sont
utiles pour tous. La carte d’orientation tactile est semblable aux cartes indiquant « Vous êtes ici » dans les centres commerciaux, mais elle est placée plus bas et
placée sur un podium pour que tous y aient accès. Nous vous invitons à transmettre vos commentaires au bureau du service à la clientèle du Centre sportif
Walter-Baker ou par courriel à l’adresse [email protected].
