A Day Habilitation Service provides focus on the development of a person's independence, individuality, and directs activities toward inclusion in the community. If an individual is in need of services outside of the vocational venue, or is looking for training to enhance their vocational aspirations, day services may offer them the prerequisites they need. Participants in Day Habilitation volunteer at local hospitals and nursing homes, exercise at local gyms and are actively involved community members by participating in gardening projects, “Meals on Wheels” and “Adopt-A-Highway.” Through these activities as well as through tours of local businesses, participants can also learn about potential new career paths.
