Abstract
A descriptive survey was conducted to determine the perceptions of persons with disabilities of an adventure program. The 37 respondents, whose ages ranged from 15 to 39 years old, were purposively selected to participate. Four forms of assessment were prepared; two of which were not directly part of the study, but were given to establish the necessity of the program. Pre-assessment was given to determine their training needs and a post-assessment was given after the activity to solicit the respondents' perceptions and experiences of the program. Respondents who were found to be having strong self-support and sense of body esteem, positively evaluated the program. Learning outcomes covered significant personal, relational and organizational components that supported the thesis that an adventure program should be part of the vocational and rehabilitation service of the center, and be considered as part of a school's continuing extension program.
