Since 1990 California Vocations has provided a day program for adults with developmental disabilities.
COVE is a community-based program that provides activities to suit each individual’s interests and abilities.
Day program attendees are picked up and taken to the COVE program where they get into groups structured around different activities. A typical day includes taking part in a work, recreational and social activity. We structure our client’s day based on the individual, their abilities and personal preference.
Individuals involved in the day program have the opportunity to gain experience working and volunteering in the community with job opportunities.
