Participants experience the importance of relationships and the interactions with people in their daily lives. The goal of the program is to provide a safe and positive learning environment that can adapt to different peoples learning styles. This program was founded with the intent of offering individuals with intellectual disabilities and/or mental health concerns a wide range of educational and work experience opportunities. Structure of the program was designed to focus on life skill training and social skill development rather than a typical classroom instruction format.
