 The Louise Graham Regeneration Center provides developmentally disabled adults (consumers) with high quality developmental and pre-vocational training that facilitates admission into the community at large. With enrichment classes and job training, they can continue working toward becoming more self-sufficient citizens.
Louise Graham Regeneration Center consumers participate in enrichment and life skill activities that increase their self confidence, sense of mastery and social skills.
Developmentally disabled adults learn:
 |
Personal care and hygiene |
|
Self-help skills |
|
Safety skills |
|
Life and work skills such as telling time, how to use phones and computers, the value of money, how to keep a check register and cash paychecks. |
|
Employability skills for developmentally appropriate employment opportunities |
 Adults with developmental disabilities get involved in their communities through community outings and volunteer activities arranged by the Program Manager at Louise Graham. Consumers volunteer at Lakewood High School and Ronald McDonald House, among others. Recent examples of outings include library visits, dances, trips to local parks and restaurants, theatre performances and more. Arts and crafts activities are offered onsite as are exercise classes and planning is underway for a Louise Graham Center basketball court.
Meaningful social, recreational and life skill activities, coupled with job training and community involvement, greatly enrich the lives of consumers. Through the adult day training programs at Louise Graham, consumers experience skills mastery, an increase in confidence and greater satisfaction in their lives.
