"As a parent, I am pleased to state that the Avenue S Day Hab staff are exceptionally kind, courteous and punctual on a daily basis when they greet me in the mornings for am pick-up and in the afternoons for pm drop-off. I am also happy with the communication from the day program, as I continue to be well informed of Kerwin's progress."

"The Evelyn Douglin Center for Serving People in Need, is a great program that focuses on improving the lives of young children, teenagers and adults with physical and mental disabilities. The program focuses on making the consumers become more independent and self sufficient in so many aspects of their lives.

My son Jordan has been a consumer in both Evelyn Douglin's After School and Saturday Respite Recreation Programs for the last seven years. My husband and I are both grateful for the opportunities and life learning experiences that Jordan has learned and will continue to learn as a consumer in the Evelyn Doughlin Program.

The Evelyn Douglin Program concentrates and believes on making a person with disabilities "able and ready for life in the real world". It's about my son Jordan's "abilities not his disabilities."
