Individualized Skills & Socialization.

ISS helps adults with disabilities practice everyday skills, build friendships, and take part in community life — at their own pace and on their own terms.

A welcoming day program — close to home.

What it is
Time spent in our Austin day program practicing skills that matter to the individual — coloring, drawing, puzzles, and writing at the table, plus job skill and social skill practice with people who enjoy being there.
What a day looks like
A typical day starts with breakfast and refreshments, then a morning check-in, a table activity like coloring, drawing, puzzles, or writing, a one-on-one skills session, and time outside in the garden or on a walk.
Who it's for
Adults on the HCS, TxHmL, or DBMD waiver who enjoy a consistent place to gather and grow.

Real community, real connections.

What it is
One-on-one or small-group time out in the community — a trip to Zilker Park or the library, a favorite shop, or a place each person has been wanting to visit, planned together ahead of time across Austin and the surrounding area.
What a day looks like
Plan an outing, practice directions, transit, or money skills along the way, share an activity, then reflect on what to try next.
Who it's for
Anyone who wants to spend more time out in Austin and the surrounding area with the right support.

Community access starts in your own backyard.

Our Austin location puts us close to the places that matter — parks, retail, transit, and community resources across Travis and Williamson counties. We plan every outing with safety, accessibility, and personal interest in mind.
