Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Up to 57 adults with developmental disabilities (consumers) will participate in assembling clay molds for the community inclusion project. The adult consumers plus the community will contribute the molds. Due to the influx of new consumers 15% of the adults and 25% of the community will experience this art form for the first time. We will measure the participation rate of enrolled consumers and gather ongoing feedback on the activity by those participating. We will gather post-completion feedback form consumers, staff, guardians, community, and others participation in the creation of the art and/or observing the final products.
