Since 1974, the Stroke and Disability Learning Center (SDLC) has provided an interdisciplinary educational program for adults who have survived a stroke or are living with disabling conditions. The SDLC is a unique program located on the Cabrillo College Campus. It starts where medical rehabilitation leaves off. Patients become students and enroll in specialized classes to develop strategies and gain skills in a supportive learning community. Students participate in small-group instruction in Mobility and Fitness, Speech and Communication and Counseling Support with option for Ceramics and Therapeutic Horticulture. Classes are designed to meet the learning needs of each individual student, taking into account a wide range of disabilities and offering personalized assessment to identify individual learning goals.
Horticultural therapy enlivens any program! HTSC goes to adult day centers, special day classes, stroke centers, memory care and assisted living residences. Sessions are weekly, bi-weekly or monthly. We tailor the sessions to meet your and your clients' needs.
If your needs are more suited to an at home environment or a one on one session, please contact us for a consultation!
