Day Programs

GPSO operates a disability day program centre in both our Griffith and Leeton facilities. We offer engaging group activities in a state of the art facility designed to develop and empower each individual to become independent and achieve their identified goals. Our day program aims to build and improve on social skills to form long lasting friendships, develop emotional and self regulation abilities and be a part of a community that works together.

Our experienced staff will deliver a meaningful and person-centred program for each Participant, catered to their needs and goals.

Depending on individual needs and funding, day programs may be delivered in a 1:1 or group setting. Activities may include but are not limited to cooking, beauty therapies, sport, art and craft, gardening, workshop, fitness and hydrotherapy, dancing and social outings.
