Tailored Day Services
Tailored Day Services (TDS) are designed to maximize a client's individualized choices and needs, with customization of day services through individualized services. TDS provides opportunities for increased integration and inclusion, as well as further opportunities for the consumer to develop or maintain employment/volunteer activities and pursue post-secondary education. Comsumers may request information about TDS to the regional center at any time and request an Individual Program Plan (IPP) meeting to determine the type and amount of tailored day services provided.
Tailored Day Services are designed to:
Provide 1:1 Support
Consumers receive personalized aid weekly based on their needs and goals. This can include self-advocacy, interpersonal skills, and mobility training.
Aid in Post-Education Persuits
TDS provides support in the enrollment process to obtain a GED, vocational/trade school, or college, finding resources, and applying for financial aid.
Assist in Employment Exploration
Consumers gain valuable practical experience in building resumes, job interview practice, and employment readiness through interpersonal and conflict resolution skills.
Outsource Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteering provides development of new tasks and skills, creates networks and professional relationships, and facilitates career field exploration.
