Our Programs

L.A. GOAL’s Programs help each Member reach his or her highest potential. Our programs are open to adults with all types of developmental disabilities, including Autism, Down syndrome, and Cerebral Palsy.

At L.A. GOAL, we avoid using terms such as ‘client,’ ‘consumer,’ and terms such as ‘high or low functioning.’ We’ve seen how these labels can be demeaning and limiting. Given the training in a nurturing and supportive environment, Members and their families are often surprised with what they can accomplish.

For example, some Members who were previously non-verbal (or only spoke unintelligible words) are now speaking and communicating clearly, after participating in our programs. Members who could not read are now reading. Members who were unemployable because of behavioral issues or simply a lack of marketable skills are now working and keeping their jobs.
Keep exploring our Programs by clicking the links below to learn how our Members reaching their true, full, and beautiful potential.
