The Day Habilitation Program is licensed to serve up
to 110 individuals with multiple disabilities. Privileged to be the first MOVE
(Mobility Opportunities Via Experience) for adults Model site in the United
States and the World, the focus of the program is on mobility opportunities
motivated thru a varied and exciting range of activities reflecting individual
choice. The program incorporates an array of interests including cooking, art,
music, and recreation. An emphasis on community is fostered by a multitude of
opportunities and activities. In addition, daily living skills are cultivated
and enhanced using assistive technology. Also offered is a state of the art
Snoezelen Room for total sensory stimulation, The Butterfly Salon for personal
beauty, nursing services, and whirlpool hydrotherapy. CCR strives to provide a
direct care staff to participant ratio of nearly 1 to 3.
The David Lokey Center was established in 1975 by
Mrs. Ethel Terrell who at the time was president of the Cecil County ARC. She
set aside funds to begin the program, which was dedicated to David Lokey who had
worked with children with developmental disabilities since age 15 and succumbed
to cancer while a freshman in college. Situated on 8 acres with 2 greenhouses
and a pond, the Center combines contemporary services with peaceful
surroundings. Since 2000 the center has offered programs providing individuals a
creative setting where they can learn craft, horticultural, and life skills in a
caring environment that encourages the optimal development of each individual.
In addition, individuals are encouraged to participate in community outreach
efforts and recreational fun outside the center.
