Community day services

what are day services?

Clearbrook’s Community Day Services (CDS) offer an array of weekday services to adults with intellectual/developmental disabilities. By providing a variety of opportunities, our clients are able to expand their interaction with their peers, community, and the world at large within structured settings. An individualized program plan is developed around each client, resulting in services that are a blend of instruction, interventions, activities, and experiences. Service planning focuses on encouraging and supporting participants to express their interest.

CDS provides continued-learning opportunities based upon an individual's interests and abilities, with an emphasis on socialization and community participation.

PURSUIT

PURSUIT is a collaborative program between Clearbrook and NWSRA (Northwest Special Recreation Association) that provides opportunities for continued growth for adults with disabilities through recreation and leisure activities that are fulfilling and enriching.

PURSUIT serves adults with disabilities over the age of 21 by providing year-round recreation and leisure opportunities to improve health and wellness, learn life skills, practice self-advocacy, and integrate within the community.
