Independent Living Skills

Summit Oaks I offers a comprehensive Independent Living Skills program for those age 16 and older. Based on assessed needs, an individualized program includes managing money, developing vocational & educational skills, and health & safety skills.

Newly learned skills are practiced by opening a bank account, obtaining employment, engaging in leisure activities, and learning how to use community resources. Through this program, young adults learn to create a healthy living environment for themselves and contribute to their community.
