Monacan Services helps each person reach his or her maximum potential in social, recreational and self-help skills by providing education, training and support. Services are provided in a manner that is as least restrictive and culturally normative as possible. Services provided are person-centered, with the individual directing the services, training and supports provided.

- Getting out into the community for events such as state and local fairs;
- Interacting with local merchants and services such as grocers, pharmacies, orchards and restaurants;
