Description: At Creative Works, we build communities of inclusion one relationship, one experience, one person at a time. We believe in breaking down barriers and creating opportunities for people with disabilities to pursue their potential, contribute to their communities and be valued with dignity and respect.
Our extensive curriculum is completely customizable. Each individual can sample from the full array of activities, and individually tailor a daily or weekly schedule of both on-site and off-site activities. New choices are developed frequently, based on participant feedback. If desired classes or community activities aren’t yet offered, we develop them based on interest and we hold quarterly forums where folks have the opportunity to give feedback on services and direct decision-making. For example, we now offer an Outdoor Exploration module for those who want to experience some of the great gifts of outdoor life in Maine—hiking, fishing, horseback riding, rock wall climbing, etc. For those who wish to give back to their communities, there are many volunteer opportunities, including work at animal shelters, Meals on Wheels, and other meaningful ways to engage. Participants work together and with qualified Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) to form a community of people who are pursuing their passions on a daily basis!
