Pathways to Independence
Independence, together.
We are more than a recreation-based program. We are committed to developing social, interpersonal and communication skills in individuals with complex cognitive disabilities to help them overcome challenges and thrive.
Who we serve
We serve individuals with a wide range of cognitive disabilities such as autism level 1, learning disabilities, mild intellectual disabilities, AD(H)D, borderline intellectual functioning, written and expressive disorders, and brain injuries.
Support at multiple stages of life
We help individuals who come from a number of different walks of life, from students transitioning into adulthood to older adults looking to build community. To learn more about what services are offered to your age group, select from the following options.
