Program Criteria
In order for the program to provide training at an optimum level, it is our goal to maintain a consumer/staff ratio of four to one.
After submitting the admissions application, the consumer will participate in a rep-enrollment skill assessment to determine a basic level of functioning. If the program is deemed suitable, the consumer will be admitted for an eight-week evaluation and adjustment period. During this time, the consumer’s specific training needs will be identify and program goals established. At the end of eight weeks, a final enrollment decision will be made.
Consumers will be required to bring their lunch to the center daily.
Transportation to and from the center will be arranged through your local Regional Center.
