The Local Source for News and Information Since 1980
The "Meaningful Day Services" program focuses on community inclusion as an essential for the people we support. For the adults at Benedictine, being part of the community helps build independence, confidence, social connections, and real-life skills that can’t always be developed in a classroom setting. There are more local events, classes, and outings built into the schedule, such as classes at the YMCA, book club at local libraries and partnering with local kitchens for culinary classes.
Empowering Job Seekers with Abilities
Benedictine’s Employment Resource Center is a career & training center specifically tailored for job seekers with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Job seekers are given the opportunity to choose from customized job listings, on-line job research, and developing interview skills.
Job seekers will also have the opportunity to meet with local businesses and participate in on-site training and learning sessions.
