About this organization
Mission
To enable adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities to achieve their full potential and lead independent lives. Our philosophy promotes choice, self-direction and independent community living for 250 clients in South Orange, NJ.
About
The day habilitation program provides a structured daily schedule of activities for over 70 clients five days a week from 9 am to 3 pm. Our program experienced a significant increase in enrollment this year, and now focuses on four distinct components: day habilitation, life skills, transition, and aging in place. Our program is geared toward clients who are recently out of school, those who are new to Jespy, and those who are not working or volunteering on a full-time basis. Within each component, clients participate in group workshops that provide hands-on experiences to learn and reinforce job and money skills; meal planning; housekeeping; kitchen safety; and social and coping skills. In addition, the day habilitation program offers clients the opportunity to unwind and express themselves through craft and art projects; engage in athletic and recreational activities; and enjoy trips and outings into the community. Recent additions to the program include goal setting; problem solving; and community and internet safety.
