To learn life skills like looking gor an appropriate job, shopping, preparing meals, sharing an apartment or other home, handling money etc. Their parents are not going to live forever. It’s a good program.

Why?I know I am going to catch a lot of grief for agreeing with you, but what is the purpose of this program? How much does it cost us the taxpayers versus a typical group/work home. What extra skills do the students get from this? I could see it as part of a training set for some kind of Special Education degree, but do people with Down's syndrome really "need" to go to college.

Why?”
Possibly to qualify them to become Pooblik Skrewl Collective teachers?
