Skills For Life Update

1st Annual Bake Sale!!

Skills for Life Day Hab held their first annual bake sale in December.  The Sale was a huge success.  All proceeds will go back into helping provide supplies for future bake sales as well as other supplies needed in the Skills for Life Center. Thany You to all who participated~

 

 

 Crafts The clients  in the Skills for Life Center will be making I.D tag necklaces and Tie blankets to be sold throughout the year. If anyone is interested in purchasing any of these items contact the Skills For Life Day Hab Center Monday- Friday 10am-3pm at 440-417-1770.

Exercise and activities are important. We have implemented a small exercise program encouraging clients to enjoy at least 5 mins of movement on one of our exercise machines available. So far this has been a positive program giving each consumer a sense of accomplishment.

Something Smells Yummy! That might be coming from our kitchen!  The kitchen is up and running and we have turned out some great products for our first annual bake sale as well as helped clients prepare their own lunches.  Baking Classes are set to start soon. A big Thank You to Rick Dieffenbaugher and all the staff for assisting clients with the baking. We are looking forward to classes that Rick is putting on for clients in the up coming months.
