The °ÄÃÅÀúÊ·¿ª½±²éѯ Adult Community Services (ACS) opened in January 2020. ACS is a program that offers individuals 21 and over, who are enrolled with DDD and Medicaid, an opportunity to strive for independence by helping to develop their social, emotional, and life skills. To explore individuals' interests, ACS offers opportunities to participate in community inclusion and pre-vocational learning experiences. Hands-on experience that can be transferred to real-world opportunities is a cornerstone of ACS in assisting young women and men into adulthood. The program is located on the Piscataway Campus.
