Center for Specialized Services

The Center offers day programs that provide cognitive enrichment, stimulating recreational activities and meaningful social interactions. Participants set personalized goals, engage in prevocational and community-integration activities and receive assistance with activities of daily living. Offers sensory stimulation, behavior therapies, occupational and speech therapies, and enrichment programs.

The Center is dedicated to assisting people in finding meaningful, paid employment. Our employment services include vocational evaluation, skills assessments, career exploration, vocational training, individualized job placement services, on-site job supports and continuing job-retention services. The Center also helps youth with their transition from school to work.

The Center owns and operates social enterprises (Destination Desserts, a gourmet dessert bakery and food truck, and Wags in a Bag, an all-natural dog treat bakery) as a means to provide training and employment opportunities for people with disabilities. All of the products from the Center’s social enterprises are handmade, packaged and sold with an integrated workforce.

The Center offers continued rehabilitation services to maximize quality of life and increase independence. Our licensed physical, occupational and speech therapists provide skilled therapy treatments and our licensed rehabilitation counselors offer individual, family and group counseling sessions.

For many people with disabilities, barriers in their communities take away or severely limit their ability to live independently. The Center offers a holistic approach to support the diverse needs of individuals wanting to gain the skills to live independently, maintain employment and be safe in their community.

Adaptive equipment can help a person with everyday tasks, such as bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, eating, walking and being mobile. The Center helps people get the equipment and devices they need to become and stay independent.
