At Day Break, we believe in celebrating the individual.
We take pride in offering person-centered activities that nurture the spirit and encourage individuality and independence.
Day Break is not only valuable for those receiving services, but for their loved ones as well. It provides a break from the important, yet strenuous, tasks of taking care of someone. Day Break plays a critical role in keeping people in their homes and out of long-term care.
Schedules can be set at time of enrollment and changed at any time. If service is needed on an unscheduled day, or making a cancellation, please give 24 hours notice if possible.
Day Break Hours: 9am-3pm, Monday – Friday
