Monday and Tuesday Overnights
This program allows families two full days of respite every week. This program serves our families in greatest need. Most families in this program are headed by single parents or elderly parents.
Adult Day Program
At the age of 22 families face the end to entitled educational services provided by schools. Many adults with disabilities end up at home with little to do. Our program concentrates on teaching the daily living skills that are needed for each individual to reach their highest level of independence. Goals range from learning to shower independently to learning how to interact in a public place.
Employment Support for Individuals with Disabilities
We have developed thirteen job sites. We provide job development, training and coaching within these sites for many of our adults with developmental disabilities. The joy of having a job has the wonderful effect of increasing self-confidence, responsibility and the overall feeling of being a productive part of society.
