Our Program Philosophy

Our organization's philosophy is that "when support improves, outcome will increase". At some point in our various lives our ablilities will diminish and we may need to depend on others or tools to get by, engage, fit in or make defining decisions that affect our lives.

We are not a "one-size-fits-all" program, We listen to individual needs, explore and present practical options based on interest and capability, we educate and encourage participation in the choice process and together we design an action plan. This involved process is expected to increase satisfaction as well as enhance the quality of life, one at a time.
