COMMUNITY-BASED & Meaningful Day Services In Anne Arundel & Carroll Counties, MD
Our Community-Based Program Builds Social, Vocational, And Employment Skills
What Are Meaningful Day Services?
We believe that every person we serve should experience a meaningful day based on their needs and preferences. Our Meaningful Day Program provides access to Community-Based Integration (CBI). Under this program, we provide Community Development Services (CDS) and Employment Services. Both of these services cater to adults with developmental disabilities ages 21 and above. Our focus is to enrich the lives of those we support through activities within the community that promote your loved one’s personal and/or professional growth.
49,530 – The number of Meaningful Day Services hours we provided last year.
