IMPACT PROGRAM
About the Impact Program
The TAG 5 Impact Program assists young people with a disability to make the necessary life transitions from school to young adulthood.
The Program operates on weekdays and each day you have the opportunity to participate in structured activities which promote a healthy lifestyle. These activities will help to develop skills, both practical and social, and to assist in building independence. The Program also gives people the opportunity to get to know new people and build long-lasting friendships.
We'll pick you up and drop you back home.
As a part of the Impact Program, we pick up all participants in the morning and drop them home at the end of the day.
