Narrative

Thrive’s adult Social Groups bring together people with like-minded interests to share their skills or thoughts and create a community. Social Groups focus on creating meaningful moments. Groups give people a sense of belonging, connection, support and open communication. Adult social groups spotlight interests such as self-advocacy, empowerment, and cooking skills.

 

Thrive empowers people with developmental disabilities (DD) to focus on ability and discover opportunities to shine. Through our unparalleled programs, proactive philosophy, and unfailing commitment to the participants and families we serve, Thrive helps create lives filled with happiness, meaning and pride.
