Key Components of Our Life Skills Program
Individualized Assessment and Goal Setting
We begin with a comprehensive assessment to identify the client’s current abilities and specific needs. Our Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) then develop individualized goals and intervention plans to address targeted life skills.
Self-Care Skills
Personal hygiene, dressing, grooming, and self-feeding are fundamental self-care skills. Our programs provide step-by-step instruction and support to help clients master these essential tasks, promoting greater independence in daily routines.
Domestic Skills
Skills such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, and organization are crucial for managing a household. We offer practical training and hands-on practice to teach clients how to perform these tasks efficiently and safely, fostering a sense of responsibility and self-reliance.
Money Management
Understanding money, budgeting, and basic financial transactions are vital for independent living. Our programs include activities and exercises designed to teach clients how to handle money, make purchases, and manage their finances responsibly.
Safety Awareness
Ensuring personal safety at home and in the community is a top priority. We educate clients on important safety practices, including emergency procedures, recognizing hazards, and understanding personal boundaries.

Navigating the community involves a variety of skills, from using public transportation to accessing community resources. We provide guided experiences and role-playing scenarios to help clients build confidence and competence in community settings.
