13,000 Sq. Ft. Facility to Open in December, Expanding Job Training, Life Skills, and Support Services for Adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities
JARC Florida, a non-profit, non-sectarian organization that provides programs and services to educate and empower adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, hosted a Topping Off Ceremony on Friday, June 27, 2025 at 9:30 a.m. to celebrate the construction progress of the new 13,000-square-foot Caryn J. Clayman Life Skills Center. Located on the Lynne & Howard Halpern JARC Campus in Boca Raton, the new facility is expected to open in December 2025.
The Caryn J. Clayman Life Skills Center will significantly expand JARC’s capacity to serve individuals with intellectual and develop-mental disabilities at all stages of life – providing space, support, training, and opportunities that promote independence and com-munity inclusion.
The new four-story building is a cornerstone of JARC’s $15 million Capital Campaign, which aims to fund construction and establish an endowment for long-term sustainability. The campaign is nearing its goal, but additional support is still needed.
