Community-Based Day Supports
Our Community-Based Day Supports (CBDS) program empowers individuals to build independence by developing, strengthening, and maintaining the skills needed for personal growth, social connection, and success within the community. Participants spend at least 70% of their time actively engaged in community-based experiences, where individual interests, goals, and vocational opportunities are continually explored to create meaningful, real-world learning opportunities.
The program offers a wide variety of enriching activities tailored to each person’s preferences and abilities. Opportunities may include volunteer and vocational experiences, health and wellness programs at the YMCA, memberships to local museums and art galleries, equine therapy, transportation training, and day trips throughout Massachusetts. These experiences encourage confidence, community inclusion, relationship-building, and the development of everyday life skills.
PRIDE, Inc. also provides specialized support for individuals with Acquired Brain Injury (ABI), a non-progressive brain injury that occurs after birth. ABI services include community-based day support, individual and community rehabilitation, adult companion services, short-term respite, and supported employment services — all delivered through a person-centered approach focused on maximizing independence and quality of life.
For families seeking inclusive, engaging, and community-focused disability services in Massachusetts, PRIDE, Inc.'s CBDS program offers compassionate support designed to help individuals thrive both socially and independently.
