Each person will acquire, maintain, or improve skills like personal care, computer skills, money management, navigating public transportation, and personal safety.
Socialization: becoming more connected to a local community, social group, or volunteer opportunity.
Healthy Living: participating in exercise routines, grocery shopping, meal prepping, and learning to make healthy life choices.

Meaningful Day Community Participation Services

The Meaningful Day initiative helps individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) live fulfilling, inclusive lives by encouraging participation in hobbies, classes, events, and outings that match their interests. Whether it’s art classes, bowling, yoga, visiting local parks and museums, or other activities, our goal is to build a stronger community based on inclusion and personal growth.

For KenCrest Residential Participants

We offer personalized one-on-one or group experiences focused on community participation supports for residential clients. Each program is tailored to the individual’s interests and skill-building needs, such as money management, shopping skills, and making purchases in real-world settings.

Testimonials

Kelly Connor

“I love seeing how happy Virginia and Emmy get whenever we’re hanging out. Emmy’s mom and staff were talking to me one day, and they were saying how they don’t get to do this often and thanked me for taking the time to be with them. It’s meaningful because their smiles are contagious, and I feel that same happiness whenever I see them.”

Olivia Riordan

“I was talking to family members about wanting to make more friends close to me because all of my friends live far away. And when I found Amanda and talked to her, I knew she was everything I wanted in a friend.”
