The Susanville program services a wide array of individuals with disabilities. Our trained, caring, and dedicated staff are always ready to provide service and support. As with all NVS programs individuals choose what activities they will participate in supported by our trained and caring staff. A vast array of in-house activities have been developed including self advocacy, sign language, learning self-help skills, culinary activities, academic skills, with activities constantly being developed to assist individuals in attaining their personal goals. Daily access to the community provides plenty of opportunities for individuals to be part of the activities that take place in the surrounding city and county. As with all NVS program sites, we are always working on vocational training. Individuals that might not be ready for competitive employment have the opportunity to train and work at a variety of jobs to develop the skills needed for community employment. Job safety and learning a positive work ethic are among some of the skills acquired through this training. The ultimate goal is for the person to be able to participate in community competitive employment.
