A general program may be adapted using ausiliary aids and services, but the structure of the activity, group size, and staff remain the same. To accommodate special needs, individuals with disabilities may request a mainstream companion. Sign languare interpreters, braille or large print, other auxilliary aids and services are also available by request. Most companions are trained volunteers who will assist with participation and integration into the program. Companions do not provide personal care.
Placements are limited, so early notification is essential.
