Exercise and Recreation
ADP is one active group! Each day, clients and employees play sports like basketball, soccer, bowling or softball, participate in Zumba, yoga or gymnastic classes, or follow along with an exercise video! In the summer, this energetic group heads to the ARD pool to swim.

Cooking Activities
Each month, clients split into smaller groups and plan a cooking activity from start to finish. These chefs-in-training choose a recipe together, budget for it's ingredients, visit the local market to purchase items, and prepare the meal with guidance from an employee. These clients learn about proper food safety, hand washing, and techniques for everyday cooking at home.
