Success Stories

Elizabeth Finds her Voice through Art

For many people with developmental disabilities, it can be difficult to express oneself through language and actions. In our Day Habilitation programs, we work to elevate the voices of our participants, and provide them with meaningful tools for self-expression and fulfillment. Through art workshops - from photography to poetry - many of our participants found that art provided a novel way to truly share their voices and experiences with the world. "Art makes me feel terrific and excellent," says Elizabeth, who shared many of her photographs in our 2022 art exhibition. "I feel happy. I learned about myself."
