Our Mission
Live, work and socialize
Journeys In Community Living is committed to supporting adults with disabilities in choosing and realizing their visions of where and how they live, work, and socialize.
Live
Life is meant to be enjoyed fully by all. Participating in your community fully requires daily interaction and communication with individuals, groups, and other organizations. At Journeys, our support system develops individuals who are prepared for real-world settings – ready to shop at their favorite store, dine with their friends and family, or volunteer for local programs.
Work
Doing a job well and working hard brings a great sense of pride. Our job placement specialists help those looking for employment obtain a regular income while honing their skills and learning new ones at the same time. A sense of identity is forged through employment, and it facilitates meeting new people and increasing social interaction. Through this process, a work-life balance is achieved.
Socialize
The benefits of socializing with others are numerous. In addition to helping one avoid loneliness and isolation, it also enhances one’s memory and well-being. Journeys is committed to ensuring that people with disabilities are fully integrated into their regular neighborhoods and communities at large. Participants of the Supported Living Program live in their own homes, with staff teaching them such skills as cooking, housekeeping, grocery shopping, and money management.
