- Confidence: a finished meal to be proud of, every week
- Connection: cooking and eating together as a group
- Gift certificates available: a meaningful holiday gift from family

Guided jewelry and button art, painting, seasonal and evergreen projects, adapted to every ability. Each project strengthens fine motor skills, focus and follow-through, and ends with something people are proud to show.
- For day programs, group homes and community agencies
- All materials supplied, with step-by-step instruction cards
- Custom programs: tell us your group’s goals and we’ll design around them
Passport funding may apply. One-on-one visits are also available for individuals and group homes.
