Description: This session will focus on what a Meaningful Day is to the people we support.   We often hear this described as meaningful engagements that includes: substantial and sustained opportunity for optimal health; self-empowerment and personalized relationships; skill development and or maintenance of skills; and social, educational and community inclusion activities.  We will review how we individualize this for our ADT participants; ensure they are age appropriate and linked to the vision and goals desired as personal outcomes of the individual.
