*School Vacation Services ~ “Camp SOAR” ~ Provided during December, July & August school breaks at our Ronkonkoma campus
*In Home Respite ~ Recreational services provided within the child’s home
*Quarterly Family Reimbursement ~ Funds provided to our families for at home respite services
All services are offered to students who meet eligibility requirements and approval through OPWDD (the Office for People with Developmental Disabilities which is the New York State office that provides funding for services for individuals with developmental disabilities.)
Our staff receive initial and ongoing training to provide the highest quality of life support for the children, adolescents and adults we serve.
Children's Day Program
Children’s Day Program currently provides After School Services. The After School Program offers opportunities for students to participate in community outings to a variety of places including fast food restaurants, convenience stores, parks and supermarkets. The goal of these trips is provide our students with opportunities to make small purchases, order a meal, engage appropriately in leisure activities with peers and locate items off of a shopping list.
Students in the After School Program also have various opportunities to participate in a variety of activities in the school setting such as small group games, arts and crafts projects, sports and exercise activities as well as providing the students with learning opportunities in the area of daily living skills.
