Adult
Services
Desert Survivors'
adult vocational
program
is designed
to meet
the needs
of individuals
with disabilities.
Approximately
90% of our
plant nursery
employees
are disabled
adults.
Employees
in our day
work program
are provided
with support
to help
them develop
and apply
their best
abilities.
One branch
of this
program
is a landscape
crew that
maintains
residential
yards or
commercial
grounds
out in the
community
through
contract
jobs.
Our adult
vocational
program
has been
successful
in providing
meaningful,
productive
work for
our employees
and a quality
product
for the
public.
Please contact
