Nevins offers free, on-site education classes to adults who are enrolled in any of its programs. This invaluable educational opportunity is made possible through a long-time partnership with the Central Piedmont Community College I-LEAD (Independence and Literacy Education for Adults with Disabilities) program. We also offer Music Therapy and Yoga as well as an accessible workout room.
