Alternative Day Services
As our participant population ages, their needs, interests, and motivations change.
For some, the desire to work a full 6–hour day has diminished. Getting older can affect
motivation as well as physical ability and stamina. As a responsible caregiver,
Portal Industries has observed these changes and as a result, has developed the
Alternative Day Services Program (with the help of funding from the United Way of Northern
Ozaukee County). This person–centered, interest–driven program was created to address the
changing needs of those who can no longer stay focused on a full day of work. Its intent is
to maintain or develop daily living skills such as community living, communications, and
living independently. This dynamic program provides a framework for social, emotional and
personal development by incorporating both learning and leisure activities.
