  • supporting people to make choices and to experience a meaningful life;
  • helping people learn daily living skills;
  • supporting the individual in their spiritual and cultural expression;
  • providing and encouraging a healthy diet and lifestyle; and
  • helping individuals experience community inclusion and participate in leisure and recreation activities.
