It is important for individuals to recognize the benefits of the programs and to engage in the activities in order to increase their interpersonal relationships. Since transportation is provided, all clients should have easy access to the programs and there should not be cancellations unless it is due to a medical reason or family issue. I think reasons behind last minute cancellations should be further discussed and looked into in order to prevent it from happening more in the future.…
