Supporting adults with developmental disabilities requires more than just services—it requires a philosophy of inclusion, purpose, and empowerment. In Henrico, VA, Smiles Like Yours is setting the standard by offering holistic care solutions like community inclusion services, adult supportive day programs, and an expansive network of disability services tailored to each individual’s goals.
Here’s how we’re helping individuals thrive while building a more inclusive Virginia, one smile at a time.
Community Inclusion Services in Virginia: Belonging in Action
Inclusion means more than just being present in the community—it means actively participating, contributing, and forming meaningful connections. That’s the heart of our community inclusion services in Henrico and across Virginia.
Our programs are built around real experiences that expand independence and open doors to lifelong learning, including:
Visiting museums, theaters, and cultural centers
Attending community festivals and events
Participating in volunteer activities or local job shadowing
Joining fitness classes, art workshops, or library groups
Exploring shopping centers, restaurants, and parks independently
Trained support staff accompany participants to provide coaching, safety, and encouragement while allowing each individual to express themselves freely in new environments.

Life skills development (budgeting, cooking, personal hygiene)
Health and wellness activities (yoga, nature walks, mindfulness)
Creative exploration (music, painting, storytelling)

A Day in the Life: Reggie’s Story
