At J Heart Healthcare, we believe everyone deserves a chance to thrive in their community. That’s why we offer Community Development Services (CDS) — personalized, skill-building programs designed to help individuals with disabilities connect with their communities, build confidence, and live more independently.
CDS is a unique set of habilitative services that help individuals learn, maintain, and apply real-world skills through direct engagement in community-based activities. Whether it’s volunteering, attending social events, or learning to navigate public spaces, every activity is tailored to the person’s goals and abilities through a person-centered plan.
We understand that community integration is more than just being present — it’s about feeling included, valued, and capable. Our CDS program encourages personal growth by helping each individual become an active member of their community, surrounded by both support and opportunity.
