Pioneer Center provides Day Services for adults with Intellectual & developmental disabilities, autism, and seniors from Monday through Friday from 9:00am – 2:30pm. We also offer opportunities to participate in Special Olympics and recreational programs on weeknights and weekends.
Day Services are offered at locations in McHenry, Woodstock, and Huntley. The program is designed to enhance self-advocacy, communication and independence through an array of structured classes, experiential learning opportunities and community integration. Participants are engaged in activities such as cooking, music, community planning and physical fitness as well as opportunities to learn more about rights, responsibilities and relationships.
Clients are assigned a community support team that develops a “Person Centered Plan” to help them set and achieve goals based on their strengths, needs and preferences. Clients are also supported by a full-time nurse to ensure their health and wellness needs are met throughout the day. Each day our Day Service clients engage with a variety of activities that can include:
Pioneer Center offers many opportunities to help clients live independently, exert control over their own lives, and to fully participate in the community. For more information on our Day Programs, please click the buttons below, or call (815) 344-1230.
