Clients in Gracious Services’ Day Habilitation program enjoy lunch outside together.
Day habilitation programs are designed to provide individuals with developmental disabilities with support to achieve their life goals and find a meaningful path to community participation. This promotes independence and provides opportunities for individuals to live fulfilling and purposeful lives.
Three benefits of joining a day program are:
- Boost Emotional and Mental Wellbeing
Day programs such as Gracious Services’ custom habilitation programs in New Jersey have a positive impact on participants’ wellbeing. In addition to support, valuable resources, and increased community involvement, participants build relationships and enjoy social activities. This enhances independence, self-esteem and social skills to enrich their lives. - Develop Life Skills
It can be challenging for individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities to cultivate life skills. Whether they are seeking gainful employment or looking to move into an apartment after graduation, day habitation programs can help facilitate the process by developing and practicing life skills. Specialized programming can teach budgeting and financial management, cooking, independent living skills, and more. - Affordable Care Option
In most cases, adult IDD day programs cost less than living communities. This makes them an affordable care option for individuals with disabilities as there are several ways to pay for day programs. This includes Medicaid, insurance, self-pay and other programs.
