Navigating Your Journey in Site-Based Day Habilitation
Enrolling in a Site-Based Day Habilitation program is a collaborative and deeply personalized process designed around the unique aspirations of each individual. From the very first intake assessment, our dedicated team works closely with family members, care managers, and the participants themselves to identify specific personal milestones, whether that means mastering a new culinary skill, improving communication, or building lasting friendships.
Once goals are established, our clinical and direct support staff create a customized daily schedule that balances structured skill-building with creative exploration and community engagement. Regular progress reviews ensure that as an individual’s confidence and independence grow, their program evolves to offer fresh challenges and opportunities. Our Site-Based Day Habilitation framework is built to adapt, ensuring every individual is continuously empowered to realize their full potential in a safe, welcoming environment.
Living Resources’ Site-Based Day Habilitation program offers individuals with developmental disabilities the opportunity to learn and improve their skills for meaningful, independent living through community involvement and various in-house and community activities. Our day programs for adults with developmental disabilities focus on skill building in independence, community inclusion, social integration, individuality, and productivity.
At their sites, individuals participate in a wide variety of recreational activities. Additionally, participants go out in the community on a regular basis – some daily, others not as often – based on their desires and interests as well as their abilities, challenges, and goals. Currently, Living Resources provides day programs for adults with disabilities in Schenectady, NY, and East Greenbush, NY.
The Site-Based Day Habilitation program supports individuals who tend to need more support than those in the Day Community Opportunities Program (DCOP). the Site-Based Day Hab program provides more staff per participant, and can always offer a quiet space within the site if someone is having a tough day.
