Community participation programs

Having the confidence to interact in social circles and the ability to participate in community life makes everyday living so much easier.

Our range of Day Programs are designed to equip participants with these skills in an environment that is interesting, challenging and most importantly fun.

Our Community Participation Program helps young adults who have left school develop their living, social and personal skills to foster independence and promote participation in community life.

At Lifestyle Solutions the people we support remain the focus of everything we do, therefore we take a person centred approach to individual planning and caring. So for every individual we develop a range of short, medium and long term goals and then organise a range of community based activities to achieve these goals.

These are all designed to:

• encourage independence
• build everyday life skills
• foster community and social participation
• promote recreational and leisure pursuits

Our activities are tailored to meet the needs of each person we support and might include:

• a visit to a show, exhibition or attraction
• volunteer work or workplace visits
• nature walks and social outings
• picnics and sports gala days
• art workshops and exhibitions
• tenpin bowling tournament
• innovative and engaging training programs
• connecting with the local community
• sensory and art therapy
• music therapy

Most importantly we make all of our activities fun, engaging and interesting.
