Friends Together

Friends Together began in May of 2000 and is a unique non-vocational option that is designed to allow participants the opportunity to gain skills in planning and participating in social activities in their community. Program participants typically spend half the day in leisure exploration classes on-site at AccessAbility. They will spend the other half of the day in the community experiencing leisure/recreation opportunities in the Twin Cities metro area. Paid work is not offered in this program.
