치료레크리에이션은 사회에 있는 많은 사람들이 그 대상이 될 수 있다. 이러한 치료레크리에이션 서비스대상은 특수대상과 일반대상으로 구분된다. 한국치료레크리에이션협회에서 실시하고 있는 대상에서 특수대상으로는 발달장애아동, 물질중독청소년, 가출청소년, 정신장애인, 뇌졸중노인, 치매노인, 장애노인 등이고 일반대상으로는 인터넷 중독성향 청소년, 직장인, 일반인가족, 갱년기 주부, 건강노인, 건강노인부부 등이다. 한편, 우리나라에서는 급속한 고령화로 인하여 가족과 사회의 보호를 필요로 하는 의존적 노인들이 점차 증가하고 있다. 특히 보호의 필요성이 가장 높다고 할 수 있는 치매노인의 절대수가 증가할 것으로 예상된다. 그러나 현대화, 산업화에 의해서 발생하는 핵가족화, 여성의 사회참여 증가 등으로 가족의 노부모 부양기능은 급격히 약화되고 있다. 이에 따라 이들의 의료 및 사회적 보호문제는 노인복지제도의 주요한 과제로 등장하게 되었다. 따라서 본(本) 고(稿)에서는 노인복지제도의 향상의 일환으로 노인을 위한 치료레크리에이션의 실제 활동 프로그램을 제안해보도록 하고자 한다.
