The goal of teaching life skills at FLY is to equip the students with skills to function as independently as possible with their family and friends in the home and community. FLY conducts an assessment and discusses with the family goals that are functional and relevant to the development of their child’s academic, social, daily living, and leisure skills. In collaboration with the child’s family, school and related service providers, programs and interventions are developed and implemented in 1:1 individualized sessions. The children have opportunities to acquire these skills across different settings and generalize into environments where they live, learn and play.
