ABSTRACT This study examined the impact of an LGBTQ+ diversity training on the attitudes of employees within a campus recreational sports setting. Diversity trainings are a common component of inclusive management, but little empirical research examining their efficacy exists. Specifically, a training program consisting of one in-person training session and four monthly inclusion guides detailing the promotion of LGBTQ+ participant inclusion was implemented and evaluated. A retrospective pretest-posttest design measured attitudes towards the LGBTQ+ population for both individuals who underwent the training and a control group of employees who did not participate in the training. Results indicate that there were significant differences in the pre- and post-training aggregated attitudinal sub-scale mean scores reported by campus recreational sports employees after participating in the training and no such differences were reported in the control group. Guided by previous research and pro-diversity theory, this study provides management implications for recreational sporting spaces.

ABSTRACT Therapeutic recreation (TR) professionals have the potential to support meaningful change and the development of well-being in clients’ lives; however, there is a gap in the role TR has played or could play in and with Indigenous communities. Despite the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s 2015 report and its associated Calls to Action, TR approaches typically fail to acknowledge Indigenous conceptualizations, definitions, and practices of leisure. This gap furthers exclusionary policies of colonialism, reinforces historically imbalanced power relationships, and it pathologizes Indigenous peoples’ well-being. In this paper, I make myself vulnerable by sharing personal experiences in practice as a cautionary tale to colleagues to challenge ongoing calls for cultural competence in therapeutic recreation practice and argue the need for acts of reconciliation to go beyond hollow acts of symbolism and to instead become transformative action.
