As both a Respite service to Parents and a coordinated social opportunity to individuals, we schedule and coordinate attendance to community activities. For those who need supports we make arrangements for staffing. Most participants enjoy the getting out and hanging out, while others use it as an opportunity to learn socialization. Some programs are designed to teach, instruct, and expect personal growth while others are mainly social and recreational. We typically offer these programs to groups based on age and the days/times vary based on program participants’ collective needs and wants.
