Virtual Programming
A space to connect ourselves with meaningful experiences and opportunities in the community. Virtual delivery is a major resource for the STEP model programming and individualized interests in group sessions (1:1 – 1:5). The STEP model focuses on direct service delivery to ensure the person has all needed equipment and supplies to participate in services outside of the day service center, but allows for limited amounts of service delivery on behalf of a person.
Activities may include:
- Current Events
- Exercise/Dancing
- Skill Development
- Virtual Tours
- Cooking/Nutrition
- Hang outs with friends
- Employment Skills
- Career Exploration
- Arts/Music
A Better LIFE
At Koinonia, Lifelong Inclusion for Everyone (LIFE) is a model that clearly identifies adequate supports needed for people with IDD to move from exclusion to community inclusion while addressing each person’s choices, barriers, and needed supports.
The LIFE model includes creating a Canvas that measures an individual’s “LIFE Level,” a ranking based on the individual’s ability and desire to be active in the community. The Canvas identifies any barriers to inclusion and supports needed. Using the LIFE model along with the Choices app, people may choose to explore a career path or engage in volunteer work, participate in cultural activities, explore virtual events, join a sports team, or other activities.
