Growing Together: Social and Life Skills Group
Let's build a space where adults with disabilities can build friendships, practice life skills, and explore their community. This group creates that space — supportive, social, and full of opportunities to learn and thrive.
Are you 18 or older? Do you have a disability? Do you want to make friends and build confidence?
This brand‑new group is designed for you!
We’re bringing together adults with disabilities to create a supportive, fun, and empowering space.
