Rationale
Young adults with physical or mental disabilities need social activities with peers just as much as any young person. However, they often find themselves socially isolated and lacking a suitable social framework. The club provides weekly enrichment and social activities, including music, art, talks on a range of topics, and outings that expose them to new places and ideas, enabling them to experience new things.
Objectives
Provide a social framework for gathering with peers
Enrichment via content they would otherwise not be exposed to.
