Adult Day Training
Our Adult Day Training program provides daily living skills and basic education training and socialization for youth and adults with complex developmental disabilities. Students have access to nursing care, medical oversight, mobility and range of motion activities, and personal care.
Student Skills Training Program/Transition Center
The High School-to-Work Transition Program at the Transition Employment Center (TEC) provides students ages 14-22 with opportunities to develop appropriate social skills while continuing their educational experience. Curriculum prepares students for adult life after graduation in which they are able to secure a job or volunteer service, thus becoming as independent as possible. Thanks to a grant from Sunday’s Child for our project called Capstone Pet Barkery, students attending TEC gain practical job experience and interpersonal skills while running a business of baking nutritious pet treats. Treats are being sold at Capstone Pet Place, farmers’ markets, and area businesses.

The people who live in a Capstone group home enjoy the benefits of living as independently as possible versus moving into an institution or nursing home. They are transported to their daily skills training programs, doctor/dental appointments, shopping trips, banking and recreational activities.
