Every great journey begins with a single step. Here at Mountainside we try and encourage our residents to fill their free time with positive activities. During the aftercare planning phase, counselors works with each resident to establish a healthy schedule of activities.
Mountainside has recently expanded its ever-growing Outreach Program. Robert Nebor now is the director of our Outreach Program as we go into different schools throughout Connecticut 4 days a week. This optional program of Mountainside's enables senior residents to give something back in the way of prevention.
