The Day Dreamers Adult Program serves individuals 18 and older and operates four days a week, offering a variety of activities designed to promote life skills, independence, and community involvement.
Participants are split into two groups: the HOME TEAM, which stays on-site for a variety of activities including arts & crafts, dancing and karaoke, cooking, and recreational games, and the TRAVEL TEAM, which explores the community with trips to places like movies, bowling, and parks. The program also hosts special one-day events, such as the Snowball Dance, Luau, Pumpkin Prom, Easter Egg Hunt, Fall Sports Festival, and Christmas Camp.
The program helps adults with disabilities build valuable life skills through activities like cooking, self-care, pet care, and household tasks, while also fostering social skills, friendships, and community connections. Participants gain confidence and independence as they engage in real-world experiences, such as ordering at restaurants, shopping, and volunteering. These activities support personal growth and help participants feel a sense of belonging within the community.
For more information regarding programs for individuals 18 & up, please send an email to BethGoolesby@EmpowerMeCenter.com.
