Helping Tweens/Teens On and Off the Spectrum
Life’s toolbox is a 501 (c)(3) tax exempt nonprofit creates life skill classes for teens, young adults, and veterans. Our goal is to assist participants in gaining or regaining productive life skills though engagement in activities while focusing on their strengths and gifts. We explore how to gain life skills which will increase community and vocational opportunities. We will be offering small classes and workshops with an emphasis on pre vocational skills, artisan activities, productive social skills, and coping mechanisms taught by professionals (occupational therapist). Occupational therapy interns from a local colleges and universities will also be part of the life skills team.
We customize workshops by designing the length of the program and the focused life skill with the groups we are serving.
We go to private schools and clubs to provide classes for the students at those locations. While the classes are listed on the calendar to illustrate our openness to travel and provide classes, they are not available to the general public.
