Day Habilitation
Northeast Arc Day Habilitation (Day Hab) programs provide assistance with the acquisition, retention, and improvement of self-help, socialization, and adaptive skills.
Supports are arranged based upon a individual’s personal goals and dreams. Individualized Day Hab plans are developed to focus on the skills and activities that best suit each participant.
