Day Services

ADEC's Adult Habilitation Services are commonly referred to as Day Services.  These services are designed to provide adults living with a developmental disability a meaningful day, every day.  We accomplish this by taking time to discover the natural abilities and interests of the people we serve, and then challenging them to work at developing those skills, abilities and interests.

The key objectives in ADEC's Day Service program are to provide opportunities for productivity, recreation and socialization each day.

Productivity is accomplished by providing a variety of age-appropriate activities, including;

• Woodworking
• Art
• Baking and cooking
• Photography
• Sewing
• Other "vocational" activities.

Recreation is accomplished by providing not only exercise groups, but also organized community recreational opportunities such as individual and team sports (i.e., softball, basketball, bowling, etc.).

Socialization is accomplished by offering volunteer opportunities in the community, participating in organized social events and patronizing community shops, services and resources such as the library, parks and restaurants. 

ADEC's Day Services are available at the following locations:

Offering services at these five locations makes it more convenient for those families living in other parts of the communities we serve while also enabling us to work toward our goal of assisting people with disabilities in becoming full participants in community life.
