Enrichment Services

Day Habilitation

RCI’s Enrichment Program serves individuals with disabilities throughout the Albuquerque and Rio Rancho areas.  This program is person centered and provides integrated and individualized community based services.  With our intensive staffing ratios, we enjoy a high personal goal success rate.

Activities in our program focus on the following areas:

• Giving back to the Community—along with numerous social activities, our enrichment   program provides volunteer opportunities to persons in need, such as Meals on Wheels, Ronald McDonald House and Adopt a Park.
• Education—hands-on training is provided on issues such as life skills and exploration to all our individuals.
• Community Integration and Socialization—we focus on providing individuals with          opportunities to interact with people in the community that are non-disabled and develop relationships or roles that are meaningful and rewarding.
• Pre-Vocational—should our individuals choose, we provide programs that will assist them in making career and/or educational preferences as they pursue an enriching and rewarding life.
• Goal Oriented Programming—our daily activities are person centered, creating a meaningful day for all participants.
