Lifestyles for the Disabled presents
"GREASE" the Musical!
Available on CMSI – Community Media of Staten Island.
June was full of fun, creativity, and community spirit! Summer began with not one, but two, standing ovation-worthy performances of Grease the Musical, showcasing the incredible talent and dedication of our participants and partners.
But the fun didn’t stop there! From a scenic getaway to Lake George, cheering on the Mets at Citi Field, and an insightful visit to Richmond County Medical Center, we’ve been on the move—learning, exploring, and making memories.
This year marks the 20th Anniversary of the Supplemental Day Habilitation (OPTS) TrProgram! Congratulations to our graduates and to everyone who has helped make this program so special.
The OPTS Program supports individuals ages 14 to 21 as they transition from school to adult services. Participants build essential life and social skills through hands-on experiences in the community, as well as at Lifestyles locations such as the Lifestyles Educational Center and the Lifestyles Abilities Center.
"Lifestyles for the Disabled" started in 1994, with the wonderful support of parents, community organizations, local business leaders, and a dedicated group of developmentally disabled adults who participated in our programs. These remarkable individuals and organizations came together to recognize the importance of creating programs that provide participants with meaningful work environments and enjoyable social experiences in Staten Island and beyond.
Empower individuals with developmental disabilities by providing inclusive opportunities for skill development, meaningful work experiences, and community engagement. We aim to promote independence, enhance quality of life, and advocate for the rights and dignity of all participants.
