How it Works

Activities We Have Supported:

Community STRIDES offers personalized community integration catered to each client’s interests and needs. Community Integration is essential for enabling individuals with disabilities to participate fully in all aspects of life, just like their typical peers. We focus on creating a supporting environment for clients that fosters independence and makes their community more accessible. Our program fosters confidence, inclusion, and a sense of belonging, helping individuals lead enriched, fulfilling lives. They will be able to fully participate in spaces where non-disabled individuals are present, ensuring an equal and active presence. Their skills and abilities will be acknowledged, and they will have opportunities to learn and grow. Clients will be empowered to engage fully in life, rather than being passive observers. 

Participants will work with our Strides team to choose community integration opportunities that best fit their interests, lifestyles, and needs. Participants can decide which team member(s) they spend their time with.* We look forward to helping you find meaningful ways to pursue your hobbies while accessing the community.
