The purpose of the Community Options program is to teach skill development through participation in community oriented activities. This section of the program is where we are able to provide most of our bonus hours and assist people in participating in various community activities. Some of the various programs that we teach while out in the community are street crossing, purchasing, socializing, making choices, accessing various agencies, and developing friendships. This section of or program also allows us to support the people we serve in volunteer work placements.
