Building Foundations for Independent Living

Life Skills programming focuses on developing critical abilities needed for day-to-day success—ranging from personal care and financial management to communication and problem-solving. We create a supportive, structured environment where youth can practice new skills with guidance and encouragement, building confidence to manage real-world responsibilities.

Our staff collaborates with clients and families to identify strengths and areas for growth, crafting personalized plans that address the whole person.

Life Skills education includes:

  • Time management and organization

     

  • Budgeting and money management

     

  • Cooking and nutrition basics

     

  • Job readiness and interview preparation

     

  • Navigating community resources and transportation
