Together we can develop knowledgeable, confident, and responsible citizens who function as independently as possible in vocational, community and social areas by providing learning experiences relevant to their interests and capabilities. This may include: 1. Job Site Assistance — Students will have job coaches and/or assistants with them on community job sites. 2. On Campus Jobs — Students will participate in jobs sites on campus that meet their needs and skills. 3. College Classes — Students will have the opportunity to participate in some classes. These classes will fit the interest and needs of students. Students will be expected to participate in class with necessary accommodations to the best of their abilities. 4. Community Training — Students will participate in the community. Trips will include locations that provide experiences that assist students in becoming as independent as possible when participating in their community. 5. Group Social/independent Living Skills — During these times students will work on an activity specifically designed to meet their individual needs. These activities will assist students in becoming as independent as possible.
