Lifestyle Enrichment Through
Meaningful Exercise,
Social Activity, & Independent Living
Mission Statement
The mission of LETMESAIL is to provide therapeutic, social, recreational, and educational opportunities for differently-abled individuals with disabilities (and their family members) enabling them to maximize their potential to lead a more independent, healthy, and enriched quality of life through a wide variety of activities held on-site at its Lifestyle Enrichment Center as well as a myriad of community-based activities.
Something For Everyone!
People with disabilities have many talents, skills, capabilities, and unique traits. These talents and abilities can be used positively to benefit themselves and society. These individuals are not so much disabled as they are differently "abled", and as such deserve a quality lifestyle where they can reach their full potential as human beings. By empowering differently-abled individuals with skills, knowledge, and opportunities, we are encouraging them to be self-sufficient and optimize their potential to lead an enriched, independent lifestyle.
All of the program components of LETMESAIL are designed to increase the social, mental and physical wellbeing of individuals with disabilities and their family members. Differently-abled participants will have the opportunity to participate in a wide variety of therapeutic, recreational, social and educational opportunities throughout the year. The goals of LETMESAIL are designed to address the needs of both clients and family members.

* Increase their time spent in meaningful social, recreational, and educational activities.
* Benefit from more socialization (instead of isolation) and improved social functioning skills.
