BERKSHIRE COMMUNITY EXPLORATION PROJECT

Through our Berkshire Community Exploration Project, we support people in a manner congruent with our mission.
Our project's mission is to:
Assist individuals to create options and opportunities that enable them to
realize their potential, share their gifts, and achieve their dreams
while assuming valued roles in our society.

In an endeavor to facilitate the optimal realization of each person's dreams, we assist people in defining their own goals and aspirations through continuous individualized support, augmented by a solid agency support network. We offer a highly diversified program that is personally tailored to the unique needs and desires of each person. Strongly committed to community integration and inclusion, we capitalize on every opportunity to engage the people we support in a myriad of social, recreational, employment, and community activities that are personally meaningful to them. In this way, we believe each individual can better recognize his or her giftedness as well as the unique contributions he or she can make to society. Moreover, the community at large is gifted with each person's presence, thereby fostering mutual inclusiveness.

It is our desire and intent to provide a niche for people who could optimally benefit from such a uniquely tailored program. We are funded through the Department of Mental Retardation and are open to subcontracting with existing D.M.R. providers.
