• Teaching social skills.
• Achieving increased levels of learning and reasoning.
• Ensuring all health and safety needs are met.

• Modeling social skills.
• Supporting people to advocate for themselves.
• Accessing leisure activities.
• Helping to obtain and maintain a job, when desired.

Firefly provides activities and day programs in communities throughout Missouri for both people with developmental disabilities, as well as senior citizens. These services are designed to improve physical health and development, improve language and communication, teach social skills and achieve increased levels of learning and reasoning.
