Our programs

Minlak is for adults with disabilities aged 19 to 64. Each person has their own plan, built from their assessments, and we update those assessments regularly.

What someone does here depends on what they need and on the funding available.

Life skills training

Everyday skills for living more independently. What each person works on comes from their own plan, and we review it regularly.

Supported employment

Help finding work in the community, and support to keep it once you have it.
