Day Program participants work together to prepare a healthy, nutritious meal for their lunch which reinforces food preparation and social skills.

We are committed to providing opportunities for community integration such as volunteering at Our Lady of Sorrows Food Pantry and various Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest NJ events throughout the year.

Day Habilitation includes a comprehensive Daily Living Skills Program which prepares clients, especially those living at home with their families, for successful independent living.
