Welcome to Our Clubhouse!
The HIVE uses a different model and different way of thinking than most of us are used to, and we like it that way! We are a learning and community-connecting club for teens and adults with intellectual/developmental disabilities and autism spectrum. Unlike an adult daycare, you can use your own current supports (Waiver employee, relative, friend, etc) to accompany you to the HIVE to work on individual goals in a safe, fun, interactive environment that is conducive to learning and values your unique gifts and abilities.
You use the personal care and supports that you trust, we provide the experiences and environment.
We also can provide:
-
Assistance in community activity planning and scheduling (posters, calendars, brochures, local magazines, etc. in our resource hall)
-
Information and resource connections

Application assistance

Classroom environment available for member's individual goals
