CADES Adult Day Program
Our Adult Day Programs, located in Aston, Newtown Square, and Swarthmore are designed to empower our participants, fostering growth, development, and community engagement through a diverse range of activities tailored to each individual’s abilities and interests.
Adult Day Program
Aston Adult Day Program is dedicated to helping each participant grow, gain independence, and build meaningful connections within the community. This program focuses on developing essential life skills, encouraging personal choice, and fostering lasting relationships. Participants play an active role in shaping their daily experiences, creating a supportive and engaging environment where everyone is empowered to thrive. Our commitment to independence is seamlessly woven into opportunities for community involvement through volunteer work and regular visits to our valued community partners—helping participants form friendships, give back, and feel a true sense of belonging.
Newtown Square Adult Day Program is focused on building essential life skills while encouraging positive peer connections. Participants are actively involved in shaping their daily schedules, fostering a sense of ownership and belonging within a close-knit community. Wellness is at the heart of our program, with yoga, exercise, and healthy living choices integrated into each day—empowering participants to care for their physical and mental well-being while growing in confidence and independence.
Rutgers Ave (Swarthmore) Adult Day Program emphasizes self-expression, communication, and self-awareness. Our participants enjoy sensory-rich experiences such as music, massage, and movement, all tailored to individual interests and needs. Each day is filled with customized activities designed to promote engagement, creativity, and fulfillment, while physical well-being is supported through movement, stretching, and therapeutic exercises in a nurturing and inclusive environment.
