When classrooms build routines around ADLs and embed language-rich supports, students:
✅ Gain independence
✅ Develop confidence
✅ Generalize communication skills
✅ Increase social interaction
✅ Meet transition and IEP goals
✅ Learn to advocate for their needs
Whether you're supporting a student learning how to tie shoes or preparing another to live independently, the Daily Living Project provides the tools, structure, and communication integration you need to make each step count.
