As students with learning and developmental disabilities reach adulthood, the transition into independent living can be a daunting prospect. However, with the right support and resources, it can be a smooth and fulfilling experience. The Horizons School is dedicated to helping its students successfully make this transition, empowering them to lead fulfilling and independent lives.

At Horizons School, we understand the unique challenges that students with learning and developmental disabilities face when transitioning into independent living. Our specialized curriculum is designed to address these challenges, equipping students with the skills they need to live on their own. From financial management and household tasks to personal hygiene and social skills, our students receive comprehensive training in all areas of independent living.

One of the key components of our program is community-based instruction. This involves taking students into the community to practice the skills they have learned in real-world situations. This hands-on approach allows students to experience the challenges and rewards of independent living in a safe and supportive environment.

In addition to our curriculum, we also provide personalized support to each student. Our team of experienced educators works closely with each student to develop an individualized plan that addresses their unique needs and goals. This includes providing support with finding employment, housing, and community resources.

At Horizons School, we believe that all students with learning and developmental disabilities deserve the opportunity to lead fulfilling and independent lives. Our program provides students with the skills, support, and resources they need to transition into independent living with confidence. We are proud to play a role in empowering our students to achieve their full potential.

In conclusion, the transition into independent living can be a challenging process for students with learning and developmental disabilities. However, with the right support and resources, it can be a fulfilling and empowering experience. The Horizons School is committed to helping its students successfully navigate this transition and achieve their goals.
