Over the years, the organization has provided a wide variety of programs, with the goal of promoting dignity and independence of people with disabilities and special needs. Our mission is to create opportunities where people can learn, grow, and age independently with dignity in community.\n\nProgram History\nAdult Day Health Care (ADHC) is a program that was created in California in 1978 in response to a need to have an alternate solution to institutionalization. The program mirrors the skilled nursing staffing model, but is based in the community and typically operates during the day on weekdays. It is akin to a senior center for those who can no longer attend a senior center independently. It is especially beneficial for those who need additional support to do things like ambulate, eat, toilet, participate in activities and more. Staff provides therapeutic activities disguised as fun throughout the day, making socializing and exercising meaningful and pleasurable. This makes folks want to come back each day!","fontStyle","Inter","isManagerLoggedIn",false,"logoUrl","https://betterteam-app-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/CIA%20Horizontal%20Color%20Logo-f5c3da12-91d6-43ff-96f9-6a07d6eb0a40.png","backgroundColor","#ffffff","borderColor","#dddddd","buttonColor","#7c5d7c","linkColor","textColor","#404040","onlyShowLogo",true,"pageSections",[56,57,58],"About","Values","Jobs","careers-job-layout",{"_61":62,"_33":34},"job",{"_63":64,"_65":66,"_67":68,"_69":68,"_70":71,"_72":73,"_74":75,"_76":40,"_77":53,"_78":79,"_80":-5,"_81":82,"_95":96},"uuid","95682311-f808-48d5-b5fb-26743cfd9ff9","title","Psychological Services Specialist","encodedSlug","psychological-services-specialist-1","slug","type","Contract","description","
