Expanded Living for Everyone Program

Workshops –

North Texas SNAP is expanding our members’ world to new perspectives, new possibilities, greater confidence and essential skills. As families look to the future with hopes and dreams for their special loved one, SNAP is partnering with those who see the need for increasing daily living skills and the ability to live with greater independence and self-advocacy. Developing knowledge, skills and understanding will build confidence as we work together towards the goal of greater independence. Over 40 areas of skills and knowledge will be covered through small workshops with material individualized for each participant.  This program’s goal is to move participants toward greater freedom of choice and the discovery of an increase in perspective, with a focus on well-being in every area of life.

Workshop Objectives:

• • Fostering maturity and developing an increase in living skills

  • Supporting communication and self-advocacy skills
  • Developing a network of support among family, friends and community service providers
  • Developing and supporting a money management system
