Community Based Life Skills are a set of skills learned by virtual support teaching and/or by direct experience. These skills are used to handle problems and questions commonly encountered in daily life from adolescence through adulthood. A community based services model focuses on the development and enhancement of the participant’s knowledge of essential life skills to promote preparation for adulthood and self-sufficiency.
Through program design and content, the model goal is to support and maintain a youth’s connection with the community as the youth mature.
This service includes an individual life skills assessment, followed by individualized and small group experiential learning opportunities.
