The Therapeutics Division is designed specifically for the mentally and physically disabled population in the community. The Therapeutics Division provides recreational, social and leisure programs. Assistance is provided in aiding the participants and their families in understanding their capabilities and limitations in relation to participation in activities.


Programs are instituted on a seasonal basis and are organized and directed by a qualified and trained staff. These programs include leisure activities such as arts, crafts, and cooking classes, as well as recreational activities such as instructional classes in physical education, exercise, and swimming. Participants also have the opportunity to compete in Special Olympics. Special Olympics is held twice a year and includes a variety of competitive events.


The Therapeutics Division also offers The Young Adult Club. The Young Adult Club is designed to meet the social and recreational needs of the mentally and physically disabled citizens in this age group. A wide array of exciting events includes dances and social gatherings, movies, and out-of-town field trips. The Young Adult Club is an excellent program, offering friendship and social interaction to the participants.
