and interests. Some popular activities include:
- Arts & Crafts

- Music
- Sensory Awareness
- Leisure Games

Innovative Support for Social Growth
When referred by the Bucks County Office of Mental Health and Mental Retardation,
Community Center participants share in the seasonal activities schedule as
they choose.
To ensure that all individuals develop confidence and cultivate relationships,
Delta offers some unique opportunities.
Communications Program. Individuals who require speech assistance may learn to
use augmentative communication devices that speak for them. Others learn to
use sign language or picture boards.
Mobility Room. Wheelchair-bound individuals can use this room to stretch out
on mats or lounge chairs.
Delta Delites Café. Delta staff provides instruction on cooking, baking,
and nutrition. The Café staff prepares a monthly lunch for participants to
enjoy with their friends or family members.
Delta Creative Images Salon. Community Center Members may have their hair
done or receive a makeover or manicure.
Community Trips. The staff organizes outings to the pool, bowling alley,
libraries, the movies, the mall, and restaurants. They are always open to
requests and new ideas.
Volunteer Opportunities. Community Center members give back to the community
through Meals on Wheels, Adopt-a-Grandparent, and other community programs.
