All About MOVE

 

Making Opportunities for Volunteerism & Exploration (MOVE) is EHCA’s community-based day support program, which is funded through Home & Community Habilitation Services or through private pay. It is designed to give adults with developmental disabilities successful experiences by providing them with real choices and opportunities to be involved in their community. Through unique partnerships formed with numerous local organizations, MOVE participants complete meaningful, productive volunteer work and participate in social clubs and community functions. Focusing on individual ability, participation may be done independently or with the aid of communication devices, adaptive equipment and/or hands-on help from EHCA staff.

 

 Meaningful Activities


Dance and visual arts programs allow participants to be involved in creative arts. They also have been able to expand their interests and opportunities with a small business venture of their own - MOVEing Creations. Their handmade, dried floral prints have been sold at local art fairs and auctioned off at fundraising events.


  

 Community Involvement


MOVE is involved in social and community events. Participants are active in clubs and classes. MOVE participants also volunteer at daycare facilities, nursing homes, social service agencies, thrift stores, libraries, animal shelters and schools.
