In August 2007 we began a Health and
Wellness Program for our Young Adults. As of April, 2008
we have two classes going...at the Boca Raton YMCA and at the
Boynton Beach YMCA. Each group participates in both cardio
and strength training. The classes are one hour long with
additional time for discussion of making healthy exercise and
food choices.
Our nutrition component will begin
on April 23rd in Boca Raton. Please contact us for further
information.
There are many social/sports
opportunities provided for teens and adults with disabilities in Palm Beach
County.

Our new Young Adults support group
kicked off on Wednesday,
February 1, 2006 at the Coalition for Independent Living
Options office. At this meeting, 10 young adults
participated in a focus group discussing what they're doing now in their lives and what
they hope to do in the future. Their parents and a few
more learned about
Transition and SSI. Thanks to Shelley and Angie for
providing a great location and great information. Everyone
enjoyed pizza, drinks, and dessert.
