The Grape Escape

Services and Programs


The Grape Escape believes in providing Fun and Innovative Services to our Individuals with Developmental Disabilities, thus we will be offering numerous Programs and Services to them. We also believe in Laughter, Lots of Laughter, thus the Fun part of our Agency! Our services will be offered to enhance not only our guys and gals’ Skills, but their Senses, Imagination, Compassion and Creativity, as well. You will see from our Programs and Services, we will be Cooking, Cleaning, Laundry, Learning Programs such as QWERTY (a computer program for persons with disabilities), and Picture Exchange Communication System (a program to stimulate the senses of persons with Autism).

Rather than bringing a daily lunch, our kitchen guys and gals will be not only preparing these meals, but serving them, too! And, of course, you can’t have a meal without clean-up, thus there will be a Custodial Crew for clean-up!

With all of this, though, and since all work and no play make Johnny a dull boy, we will be offering outings -just to get out of the office :-)!
