From efatl.org/programs ↗About this program
When people work with individuals with special needs, they often focus on weaknesses. We focus on developing strengths.
A happy person has purpose, the opportunity for growth, and exposure to new experiences.
Our members get out into the community where they can interact, volunteer, meet people, and learn new things, just like anyone else their age.
Through engaging volunteer projects such as community gardens, delivering meals to the elderly and more, our members gain a sense of purpose and fulfillment. We find appropriate sites where they can use and build their skills to make a difference.
