A Flexible Alternative to Day Programs
At Heart to Heart, we believe that every individual deserves to live life on their own terms. That’s why our “My Day, My Way” model is built around personalized support and independence, ensuring that each person receives care that is tailored specifically to their unique needs, preferences, and goals. We recognize that no two people are the same, and that everyone’s path to independence looks different.
Our “My Day, My Way” program runs from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and is designed to give participants complete choice over how they spend their day. Whether it’s exploring the community, volunteering, taking a class, or simply enjoying a favorite hobby, individuals go out with their own staff and spend the day doing only the activities that interest them. Each schedule is created around the person’s goals and passions, giving them the freedom to learn, grow, and enjoy meaningful experiences every day.
At Heart to Heart, we aren’t just focused on providing care—we’re committed to helping individuals live their best lives by fostering independence, self-advocacy, and confidence. The relationships we build with those we serve are at the heart of what we do, and we’re here to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to shape their own future, one day at a time.
