Activities and Resources to make a Meaningful Day
Resource Details
Offering someone a meaningful day means supporting people with developmental disabilities to explore their interests and how they are connected to other people through those interests. A meaningful day is about self-empowerment, learning, and developing skills, with a goal of helping people realize who they are, what they are capable of, and how they can connect with other people.
Even under the stay-at-home order, a meaningful day made up of planned and purposeful opportunities is possible. An important thing to remember is that these experiences should be goals bigger than just filling time.
