Daily Living Skills Program
The Daily Living Skills Program services our multi-handicapped
students at the elementary and high school level. The students work in classrooms,
a specially designed apartment complex in the dormitory, as well as in our
pre-vocational workshop and our high school work-study program. Our program
is based on the New York State Standards for the Severely Disabled and is
meant to maximize the students’ ability to live and work independently or
in supervised situations.
A strong support staff enhances the program with augmentative communication, speech and language therapy, sensory integration, physical therapy, occupational therapy, adaptive physical education and daily living skills training. Most of the students are housed in the apartment complex enabling the program to continue into the evening residential program.
