MCC in Motion
Using real and simulated experiences, residents practice daily living and social skills that promote healthy self esteem, self respect and confidence. We foster on site- training on outings to area grocery and department stores, churches, restaurants, the theater, parks and other cultural and recreational events, after which a staff assessment is reviewed with residents. Developments and enhancement of these skills are essential for all residents and especially for those working toward independent living.
