Recreation Programs

The Nassau County Department of Mental Health, Chemical Dependency and Developmental Services partially funds the Adults and Children with Learning and Developmental Disabilities – ACLD and AHRC to provide Recreation Services.

ACLD’s Recreation Program provides opportunities for individuals residing in the community who are over the age of 18 with developmental disabilities to participate in recreational activities.  The program increases the participant’s level of independence by providing opportunities for community integration.   Participants are encouraged to practice positive social skills and have a chance to interact with members of the community while building daily living skills.

For Additional information please contact ACLD’s Recreation Program at (631) 940-2720

AHRC’s Recreation Program offers a variety of evening and weekend Recreation Programs to meet the needs of adults in our county who have a wide range of developmental disabilities.  Activities range from passive, quiet and sedentary to the very active and athletic in order to provide adults with a safe, fun and relaxing experience.
