- Skills Development Programs: Targeted support in cooking, cleaning, shopping, budgeting, and personal care to build essential life skills and independence.
- Community Participation: Access to social, cultural, and recreational activities to enhance community engagement and inclusion.
- Capacity Building Supports: Programs to help participants develop skills, confidence, and independence, including goal setting and problem-solving strategies.
- Family-friendly, focused outdoor area with BBQ and seating to complete arts and crafts, have coffee and chat, or just enjoy the sun. For our buddy gardeners, we have a herb garden just waiting for you.
Supports can be delivered either within the community or in the participant’s own home. Additionally, clients of AACSS have access to our dedicated Hub facilities
