Development-Life Skills

 We can support you to build essential life skills to enhance your 

independence. This can be provided one-on-one or in a small group setting.

Our programs are structure flexibly so that a participant’s specific 

learning needs can be met. Our programs are fun and the skills that people 

develop are both transferable and complementary and support their growing 

independence.

Our package provides a great opportunity for participants to practice new 

life skills of their choice. These activities may include daily living 

tasks, meal preparation, computer skills and internet safety, budget 

preparation, health and safety at home and social skills.

We also support participants to practice their new skills in the 

community. To do this, we look for opportunities to connect with people by 

eating out, joining groups and visiting community venues and events. 

Travel training, such as road safety and using public transport are other 

skills that can be practiced in the community. We can also support 

participants to explore work experience and volunteering opportunities.

Development of daily living and life skills focuses enhancing the abilities 

of the participants through training and development of the participants or 

their support workers to increase their ability to live independently.

Trainings are outcome orientated and can be given either separately or 

through group exercises. They aim to teach skills to manage life, 

communication and social interaction, problem solving and managing funding 

of supports.

We help our participants and/or their careers identify their goals along 

with a plan for reaching these goals and connect them with a network of 

support where possible. We can provide training and development across a 

range of life skills, including:

•Personal hygiene

•Nutrition

•Maintaining your home

•Communicating with service providers and support networks

•Transport and travel
