Adult Program (AP)

In the summer of 2025, our ministry began our adult program. We started out very small, but we have continued to expand and add more fun events to the calendar.

The idea for the adult program began after hearing that many of our young adults did not find respite a good fit for them. They wanted a calmer, structured environment where they could meet new friends and talk about their interests.

Our adult program is different from respite in several ways. We recognize that many of our adults have higher levels of independence, so we do not provide 1:1 volunteers. Instead, we have a 3:1 ratio. Our volunteers are there to offer assistance in times of need and facilitate conversation.

To view our upcoming events, see our schedule below. If you want to register your young adult for this program, please contact Kloey Kaeser at 567-217-1972 before coming to any events.

“This adult program has quickly become my favorite event on my calendar. I value all sorts of fun from playing board games to talking about movies. One of my favorite events is our Friendsgiving. I love getting to sit around and talk to everyone about their favorite activities and how work was. This program has truly been an eye-opening experience, helping me to understand our adults with special needs.”
