Special Needs
The Special Needs program caters to individuals with complex needs, including challenging behaviors and more severe cases.
The Arc Mercer's Special Needs Day Program is a comprehensive resource for Mercer County residents with intellectual or developmental disabilities and challenging behaviors that may hinder their access to community activities.
Our program is designed to empower individuals through intensive behavioral support, skill development, and community reintegration.
In our supportive educational environment, participants engage in a wide range of activities tailored to their individual needs and preferences. We emphasize life skills training, focusing on areas such as communication, personal hygiene, safety, and money management, to prepare individuals for greater independence and community participation.
Our highly-trained staff, including behavioral specialists and program managers, are committed to providing individualized care and fostering personal growth. We prioritize creating a safe, clean, and healthy environment where participants can build relationships, develop social skills, and explore their full potential.
Through our program, individuals are empowered to contribute to society, pursue meaningful tasks, and make choices that enrich their lives.
