From our house to yours: together we’ll help you learn to make lunches in an organized, safe and easy fashion-independently, using only a microwave. Students will make yummy lunches, adapting to their preferences: meals such as a warm vegetable pasta bowl, chili stuffed baked potato or Asian fried rice. Sides might include a pasta salad or a healthy vege salad with homemade vinaigrette. And of course, a few simple desserts! Menu changes every week. Sign up for Monday, Wednesday and Friday, Tuesday and Thursday or both, for cooking 5 days a week!
A big part of the class is first shopping, organizing your ingredients and then prepping them one at a time on a cutting board. Your instructor, Rhonda Maiani will show you techniques to safely cut (with even a butter knife) foods to complete a nice lunch. She’ll send out a shopping list each Saturday, so you will have plenty of time to shop for all your ingredients, using store brands and fresh produce. Dietary needs and preferences will be taken into account.
Rhonda Maiani is a retired Speech Pathologist, from the school system. She is also an award-winning cook who knows how to stay on a budget! Working from your own home means you won’t have to learn to use one tool in class and then a different one at home. We’ll even clean up together to leave your home clean and probably smelling wonderful from the food that we cooked!

We donate our time and money to local charities, we sponsor local charity events, as well as offer free surf camps to various groups ranging from children infected with HIV, to children with autism.

Camp REACH, a summer camp for children and young adults with special needs who have severe language challenges. The use of augmentative communication is addressed for each individual camper. The camp is run by a team of speech pathologists, specializing in augmentative communication and speech services for individuals with severe impairments, with over 35 years of combined experience. This daycare allows camps a fun themed camp experience while working on social and communication skills. Peer buddies work side by side with campers to assist in a variety of activities, such as art, music, cooking, literacy, and gross motor play. Parents are encouraged to come and learn more about how to incorporate their camper’s AAC/communication into their daily activities. Sessions are divided into mornings for ages 3-10 and afternoons for 10 and above. The ratio is 5:1 speech therapist. So if a camper needs 1:1 attention for feeding, medication or behavior, we ask that a caregiver attend.

These summer camp programs enrich the lives of children with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis by providing them with a safe and supportive camp community. Our residential camp sessions offer a variety of fun activities, outdoor adventures, and educational opportunities that will build confidence and facilitate new friendships.

Through camps, afterschool programs, recreational respite, adult programs, and social groups, individuals on the autism spectrum improve their social and communication skills, peer networks, and physical well-being. Staff are trained to understand their needs and help them reach new goals. After spending time in our Social Recreation programs, individuals show increases in confidence, independence, and a willingness to try new things. The programs also provide needed respite for families and peace of mind that their loved one is in a safe and loving environment. Our summer camp runs from June 19-August 11, Monday through Friday. We do field trips in our community, arts and crafts, music and motion, and group games!
