Individuals utilize a variety of different artistic mediums from paint, wood, wool and clay as opportunities for self-expression, tactile development, and education.
Many opportunities exist for community integration and skill development in areas such as daily living, communication, and interpersonal skills.

Respite
Since the onset of Heritage Farm Inc., we have provided respite opportunities not only for families to get a break in the care of their loved ones but offered creative and interesting activities for participants to become involved with.
Through these opportunities, participants develop their daily living and self-care skills while meeting new friends and developing those relationships.
employment
Since 1985 Heritage Farm has supported individuals living with intellectual and developmental disabilities in becoming engaged, employed citizens of their communities.
We offer several supported employment services that provide various hands-on educational opportunities to prepare individuals to find and maintain competitive integrated employment. We are committed to finding employment opportunities that align with each person’s unique strengths, abilities and interests.
Day Habilitation
Day Habilitation services are habilitation services that are provided to an individual regardless of his or her living environment and traditionally take place in a certified setting.
Day Habilitation services can assist individuals to acquire, retain and improve their self-help, socialization and adaptive skills, including communication, travel and other areas in adult education.
COMMUNITY HABILITATION
In Community Habilitation our goal is to assist participants to reach their individualized potential and develop relationships within their local community.
Community Habilitation supports participants, in a one-on-one setting, to develop new skills and practice these new skills by utilizing community resources as well as their own homes to work on skill building.
