Abstract
A research study investigated student perspectives on service learning during the TRAIL to Wellness program, a four-week leisure education program for veterans being treated for substance abuse. The research explored the students' perspectives on their own learning at the end of 15 weeks. Based upon the content analysis of open-ended questions about the service learning program, several themes emerged: 1) classroom preparation improves the service learning experience, 2) service learning activities improve students' understanding of the therapeutic recreation process, and 3) the experience prompts self-awareness.
