Center for All Abilities- Chinatown

Do you think it would be FUN to go with other families like yours on a Family Outing? Yeah, Me too! The Center for All Abilities offers Family Support for those with a member who has a disability. Everything you could’ve ever dreamed of is housed within this one organization.

First, let me begin with the youth mentorship program. Adults lead Christian Based discussions on virtues and character-building behaviors. These can be done as a group or one-on-one. Guidance to lead us on the right path to a quality life is always good. Am I right?

Second, there is the popular Blue Hat Vocational Training. Cooking becomes even more of an enriching experience when you do it as a group! Let the teamwork skills begin. We all know how important it is to learn how to work together to get things done. You’ll also learn useful safety skills in the kitchen. In like manner, the cooking process helps you prepare to maybe work in a restaurant one day. Typically this program is for teens and adults. Who knows after joining the program you might even want to open a bakery one day? I just have one request. Please make sure it’s handicap accessible. Wait. Make that two requests. Carry brownies, my absolute fave! Deal?

Of course, the Center for All Abilities also offers therapeutic art and music programs. The beauty of both of these is that a certified trained therapist will meet you at your level of expertise. No pressure or need to worry if you don’t feel you’re that creative. They are there to help. No judgments just good times.

Ultimately the center hopes you’ll choose to become part of their family support programs for those with all sorts of disabilities. I say this because I saved the best for last. They have an Annual Achievement Ceremony! You know the one with the awards and you are beaming all day. That’s right. Every single year they like to celebrate what you and your new friends have accomplished throughout the programs.
