At Hope the development of daily living and life skills focuses on the training and development activities carried out by the participant or their caregiver to increase their capacity to live as independently as possible. These activities may include but are not limited to supports that will improve the participant’s ability to travel, use public transportation on their own, practise and maintain personal hygiene on a regular basis. The capacity for adaptable and constructive behaviour known as “life skills” enables people to successfully navigate the demands and difficulties of daily life.

At Hope you will be helped to develop your life skills. We will work with you and with your family or guardian to understand your goals and will ensure appropriate supports are put in place with a focus on building confidence and independence as we work together to reach your goals.
