Meet Julie – Lead Recreationist for the Trinity Village Adult Day Program (ADP).

Julie has been with Trinity Village for seven years. She started as a Recreationist in the Care Centre and has now been with ADP for six years. “I love being a part of the day program,” Julie says, “every day is different.”

As Lead Recreationist, Julie’s day goes by very fast. From setting up to program planning, her main focus is on the clients. “The emphasis is showing them [the clients] that life is not over. Keeping them engaged and active is also important; we may not have it all together, but together we have it all.”

Outside of work, Julie and her husband are avid travellers. Last year, they visited Croatia and Greece for five weeks. They have also visited New York City, Italy, Slovenia, Bosnia, St. Lucia, Cuba, Vegas, and are planning a trip to California for this year.

“If I could describe Trinity Village in one word, it would be – innovative. From a Recreation standpoint, we are always coming up with something new, and we aren’t afraid to try new things.”

Thank you for sharing your story, Julie!
