Explore - Community Participation Support (CPS) Program
Far too often, young adults graduate high school without paths toward employment, socialization, education and independent living. An everyday life is so often out of reach. At TNS’s Explore Program, participants will have the opportunity to:
- Access their local communities
- Develop transferable skills by volunteering at community sites and build confidence for employment along the way.
- Socialize with peers
- Learn about traveling in the community (DART Bus, SEPTA Regional Rail, Safety in the Streets, and more)
- Reinforce everyday living skills like cooking, baking, laundry, and cleaning
- Maintain healthy lifestyles by modeling good fitness routines, and exploring different ways to include movement throughout their day
- LEAD EVERYDAY LIVES!

What is Explore?
TNS’s Explore Program is a full day community based day program. During a typical day in our program, participants have the opportunity to explore worksites, practice cooking and kitchen safety, travel train, workout and so many other everyday life functions. Our goal each day is to make sure we are accessing, interacting, and becoming part of our local community.
