The Mel and Elaine Stein Living and Learning Center for adults with disabilities is the first facility of its kind in South Florida.  It includes the Adolph and Rose Levis Apartment Complex and The Mel and Edith Clayman Training and Resource Center.

The Mel and Elaine Stein Living and Learning Center is a dream come true.  Its planning is the result of years of research and consultation to develop the proper balance between residential living and occupational training.

The Adolph and Rose Levis Apartment Complex provides apartment for adults with special needs who do not require 24-hour supervision in order to live successfully.  The Mel and Edith Clayman Training and Resource Center enable JARC to provide services to many more adults through job training and social opportunities.  It includes a media center, counseling and training programs for the participants, as well as the JARC administrative offices.

The Center provides vocational training, utilizing actual work environments that generalize to jobs in the community.  This includes training in the industries of food services, environmental services and mail fulfillment.  Job Coaches will assist participants in securing employment in the community and provide follow-up to ensure their long term success.

The Kay Auditorium has a dual purpose.  Socialization is an integral part of our program, and the auditorium meets the needs of our many participants through education seminars, dances, Shabbat dinners and other activities.  The auditorium is also available for community events.
