Meaningful days, at ORI and in town

This service covers the hours when someone is not working. Some of it happens at ORI: exercise class, cooking or art.

Some of it happens out in town. Groups swim at Currents, work out at the YMCA, catch a movie at the Roxy, and spend summer Wednesdays at Out to Lunch. Community members come in to teach too, including a movement class and music class.

Who we help

Individuals with developmental disabilities who want more going on in their week. Many people use this service alongside a job, filling the days they are not working. Others use it as their main way to get out, meet people, and try things they have not tried before.
