Narrative

Meaningful Day Services is a unique and educational community-based day supports program designed to build skills for adults with DD (developmental disabilities). Meaningful Day uses a person-centered approach. We promote a social, creative, and professional schedule based on each person’s needs. People are offered help with academic, social, cultural, ethnic, volunteer, and community endeavors.

The distinctive day services are shaped based on input from everyone involved in the person’s life, assessments, and data-based decision-making. Meaningful Day Supports incorporates positive behavior interventions and strategies backed by research. We focus on prevention, teaching, and coaching to improve socially appropriate behaviors.

People are supported to pursue specific interests they may have in individual or group settings. Several members manage a large fish tank. They experience proper care and maintenance of the contained setting. Members also enjoy the arts and crafts department where, painting, woodworking, and artisan products are produced. Many creations are sold in the “Oh My Gallery & Gifts” retail shop in the front of the day program. Oh My Gallery & Gifts is a consignment shop where people can experience and learn the business side of a retail store environment.

Community volunteer opportunities are also part of Meaningful Day Services. This allows people to make meaningful contributions in the local community. Throughout the year, people have chances to enjoy field trips offering new and interesting experiences. Farms, museums, nature centers, and The Big E are just some of the events they have visited. Some trips are educational. Some are just for fun.
