Adult Day Services
About Us
Our Vision: People with disabilities will have equal opportunity to live, learn, work and play in their community.
Easter Seals offers a variety of community-based Adult Day Programs in the greater Sacramento area that promote independence. Our plans are person-centered and participants choose from a calendar of age-appropriate activities that help them meet their personal goals. The goals are determined by the individual and the activities are fun, yet structured with a purpose. Groups include self-advocacy, community safety, health and wellness, time and money management, vocational training, creative arts, appropriate social interactions and leisure activities.
Most programs offer computer literacy and internet skills as well. Our consumers can be found in the community at museums, college campuses, libraries, parks and recreational areas, shopping malls, and restaurants. Consumers also have the opportunity to participate in a variety of volunteer and work experiences. The Easter Seals Work Center provides paid work opportunities and vocational training and Day Programs provide the work option on a trial basis to help consumers explore what they would like to do in their future and help them make the necessary transition. Each program is open five days a week.
