In-Home Day Program

These person-centered programs are optional and provide customized, daily recreational, physical and educational activities focused on personal goals for residents in our homes.

LSA residents have the option to participate in the in-home program or attend another community program of their choice. For residents whose health and support needs prohibit them from attending an external program, mental stimulation and physical exercise are provided so they can develop skills and maintain their health. Specialized consultants such as a dietitians, psychologists, or physical therapists are also utilized to support residents in achieving their goals.

Community-Based Day Program

These programs provides life skills training and stimulating community-based activities that help participants achieve positive self-esteem, independence, and a greater sense of control over their own lives. The focus of this program is for participants to explore their community, often through small-group classes such as cooking and safety.

Open to qualified adults with special needs, our Community Integration Training Program (CITP) provides meaningful volunteer opportunities for participants to develop vocational skills. Offering a 1:3 staffing ratio, CITP provides highly person-centered support, with a goal of participants becoming more independent. The program operates year-round, provides a structured five-hour day, is available on weekdays.
