In the Discovery Day Program, there are 4 course offerings and 6 physical rooms.  The rooms/offerings are: Leisure-Vocational I and II, Continuing Education, Production, Prime Timers I and II.  Let me explain each course offering in depth:

Leisure Vocational is a combination of leisure-base activities and vocational opportunities for the slower paced consumers.  Folks are encouraged to work at their own pace with a variety of active engagement activities built in to their schedule.  Sometimes, a consumer gets tired of working at a continuous pace; so we break up the routine by offering other activities which may be of interest.  Every consumer has their own schedule modified for their level of productivity.

Continuing Education is just that…consumers continue to work on enhancing basic daily living skills.  Sign language, meal skills, etc.  Of course, there are various activities built-in to their schedules too so that they may enjoy a variety while continuing the learning process. 

 Prime Timers are for the consumers who are interested in a purely social, and enjoyable experience while at the day services program.  These folks participate in social activities for the duration.  There are musical and sensory stimulation type activities offered.  This is the most popular offering in day services.

 Production.  Consumers who want to work and earn a paycheck choose this offering.  This is a little faster paced program.  The current work opportunities offered are shredding, can crushing, and the up and coming reception program. 

 We will offer any activity in any room; the rooms have specific theme offerings, but that does not always mean that the consumer will choose that room.  Maybe their friends or roommates are in a room they want to be in but the consumer wants to participate in a specific activity not offered in the physical room.
