About the Program
Living independently and reaching specific goals is the outcome of habilitation. The underlying ability to achieve and maintain these skills is resiliency and grist. At the kernel of the human experience are these six life skills that cannot be mastered but require ongoing attention and practice:
- Caring through learning and practicing empathy
- Awareness of ourselves and others
- Navigating feelings and emotions
- Viewpoint and growth mindset
- Adapting to change
- Solve
