Our Vision
Imagine a world where adults with disabilities are not confined to their homes, but are actively engaged in their communities. This is the vision behind our Community Experience program. Each day, participants embark on exciting adventures, exploring local businesses, volunteering at community organizations, and engaging in recreational activities. Volunteering often includes activities such as delivering for Meals on Wheels, and serving meals at a local soup kitchen.
Through this program, we want to facilitate opportunities for the individuals we serve to make contributions as active members of their community, as well as facilitate opportunities for them to participate in recreational activities that they enjoy in order to help improve their overall quality of life.
Our dedicated staff provides individualized support, ensuring that each participant's unique needs and goals are met.
