Thank you to Twilight Rotary Club for showing our clients some love this Valentines Day weekend. The gift boxes full of sweets was a major success! #valleyachievementcenter #adultdayprogram #valentinesday2021 #inclusion

Our clients took advantage of the beautiful weather today and went on a trip to Windwolves Preserve for a hike. Great vibes, great weather, great time, and great people. We are exhausted!!#valleyachievementcenter #adultdayprogram #inclusion #hiking

Give a man a fish and feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. What a relaxing day we had at the park on our weekly outing. #valleyachievementcenter #adultdayprogram #teach #newskills #inclusion

The picks are in! Who do you think is winning today’s Super Bowl? #valleyachievementcenter #superbowl #autismawareness

It’s Friday, and that means we get to visit our adult day program clients! Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday we travel to each of our clients homes to deliver PPE, individualized learning packets, healthy choice snacks, and any special requests our clients may have. Although indoor services have been hampered by Covid, we here at Valley Achievement Center recognize the importance of not just seeing our clients on zoom, but in-person as well. Zoom has been a great tool in making positive connections from a distance, but there’s something about seeing a familiar face in person that makes a huge difference in the lives of our clients. #autismawareness #valleyachievementcenter #socialdistancing #smile

Today was amazing.... @vacautism

Don’t forget to watch @kgetnews this Saturday night from 6:30 - 8:30 for the Beautiful Bakersfield Awards. We were nominated for nonprofit of the year.

Anyone else feeling good on this beautiful Friday morning? The joy our clients have when their favorite staff members show up for visits is amazing.

Yay!!! This is amazing. We wouldn’t be able to support the clients we serve without the help from our beautiful community. Thank you Bakersfield for continuing to believe in our mission of helping children and adults with developmental disabilities achieve their highest quality of life.
