General Info
Journeys in Community Living was established in 1975 as the Rutherford County Adult Activity Center. A name-change occurred in August 2011 to better align the organization's name with its evolved missions. Rutherford County Adult Activity Center was a good name a few decades ago when the organization operated primarily as a day care and recreational center, but it is far more than that now, and the individuals here have led the way. It is now understood that people with intellectual disabilities can work in regular jobs and be taxpaying citizens; live in their own homes in regular neighborhoods; be good neighbors and friends; give back to the community through volunteer work; and make decisions about where the live, work and socialize. Throughout all these years and the changes they've brought, it was the people being supported who have led this journey. Their abilities, their interests and most importantly their dreams and aspirations are what paved the way forward. They continue to lead us even further into the future today! And while it is difficult to predict where they will take us over the next several decadesother than more into the communitya few things are certain. The people served by this organization will continue to amaze us with their abilities; move and inspire with their courage; and bring joy to the daily lives of those around them. The journey is never-ending!
