Adults' Employment Support Program
This is a new, integrated work and community inclusion program. It was created in collaboration by a strong group of self-advocates and their parents.
Our progressive, state-of-the-art facility is a safe, nurturing, learning environment — the only facility of its kind located on a college campus —where individuals living with developmental challenges gain valuable life skills and have fun socializing with peers while participating in community activities.
House of Possibilities provides robust weekday programs for adults living with developmental challenges. We will offer a limited number of full-time placements to individuals who meet our entrance criteria, with the primary objective to promote independence.
