Lifeworks offers two vibrant Day Habilitation programs—located in Westwood and West Roxbury—designed to support adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities through personalized, goal-oriented services. Our programs welcome individuals with Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Epilepsy, mobility and sensory impairments, and complex medical needs.
Each participant receives medical oversight and an individualized Day Habilitation Service Plan developed by a team of clinicians and direct support professionals. Lifeworks Day Habilitation programs are funded by the Massachusetts Department of Medical Assistance, accredited by CARF, and maintain a 1:7 staff-to-participant ratio. Personal care assistance, including support with feeding and activities of daily living, is provided.
