Individuals participate in skills trainings in sensory motor skills, fine and gross motor skills, self help skills, independent living skills, communication skills and social skills. This home-like setting offers a high staff to program member ratio to ensure that program members’ needs are met.

Each individual has a daily schedule that assists them in attending skills trainings that help them maximize their full potential. Daily schedules are designed to be flexible to better serve individual’s needs. Schedules have been modified to assist the program members who are medically fragile in attaining goals and objectives. Skills trainings are geared toward a sensory based curriculum.

A wide variety of supports are offered in this program such as dining, personal care, range of motion and exercise as recommended by our physical therapy and occupational therapy consultants. The program has full-time nursing which is critical for medication distribution, alternative tube feeding, as well as maintaining the health and well-being of each program member.

Community integration is accomplished through community access trips, as well as reverse integration where community members complete art activities, karaoke, and interactive drum circles.
