About Our Place

Location:

1020 Forest Ave, Wilmette, IL 60091, US

Mission Statement

We support teens and adults with developmental disabilities so that they can live meaningful, productive, socially connected lives in their home community.

Description

Our primary goal is to enable every individual to achieve their highest potential. We do this by focusing on the skills needed for successful social interactions in all aspects of a full life. Our participants learn and practice these skills at work, with each other in social settings, with typical peers and community members, in classes and clubs, with service projects that improve the community and in recreational activities.
