FLIGHT
Flight is a five-part program designed to be a platform to help individuals find worth and purpose in their lives. In this program, participants have the opportunity to pursue whatever interests them.
Building upon the county’s "person-centered" initiative, this program helps to identify an individual’s key areas of personality and aspiration in order to develop a road map to assist the individual in getting there. Our strategies behind this personal exploration are a specific approach to begin fine-tuning and sharpening an individual’s skills according to his or her strengths, gifts and talents.
We aim to include ourselves in the community and to understand the worth individuals bring to their neighborhoods and city at large. The incorporation of health and fitness also provides a nice ribbon on the holistic mission, vision and values of Flight.
We offer Flight Zones that can be transformed to assist with preparation and training in the identified areas of need. Flight plans are developed to be specific to the individual and offer a visual aid to assist in understating what will be worked on daily, weekly and monthly.
