The Backyard is an Individualized Skills and Socialization center that provides a combination of structured time and flex time in order to provide our members with meaningful activities while respecting their opportunity for self-advocacy.
Participants do activities to learn important skills:
To enrich the lives of adults with special needs by providing opportunities for social & emotional growth, independence and friendships in a safe place.
Our vision is that individuals with special needs in our community can be self-aware, mindful and resilient to reach the potential of who they were created to be.
Respect – We uphold the value of those we serve by treating everyone with dignity and respect.
Worth – We uphold the value of those we serve by providing choices and opportunities for growth and independence.
Quality – We uphold the value of those we serve by providing high-quality programs and services with a firm degree of integrity and professional best practices.
Legacy – We uphold the success of our heritage by embracing and investing in the continuous improvement of programs, services, and facilities.
Person-Centered – We uphold the value of choice, and in tailoring services and supports to each person’s individual goals, objectives, and needs.
