Village Cafe

Every morning at 11:00, clients scheduled for living skills development join our occupational therapists in the Café to make lunch for everyone else. Together, they’ll figure out the ingredients they need to purchase from a provided recipe and prepare the cafe for cooking lunch. Clients will purchase ingredients in the Village Market then return to the Café to finish preparing lunch. At noon, everybody eats together in the Park while participating in a team building exercise.
The Café provides clients and therapists an environment to teach and practice important life skills including:

  • Nutrition
  • Meal preparation
  • Cooking
  • Cleaning
  • Team building
Frustration tolerance, patience and sequential planning are just a few behaviors that can develop at the Café. Skills learned here can also translate to the vocational world, including:

  • Inventory
  • Task Completion
  • Concentration
  • Math Skills
  • Shopping
  • Customer Service
  • Relationship Building
  • Cooking for Guests
