At SOAR365, our Adult Day Support participants get a chance to explore their community, develop life skills, try new activities, and make new friends. Every day is an adventure, and that keeps them coming back year after year.

Thanks to Early Intervention, Reyna Is Thriving
Cheesy eggs and sausage, cuddling up with a favorite book, and dancing to a good beat – these are a few of Reyna’s favorite things. At home, her big brother pushes her around in her stander, as they laugh and chase their dog together.
The stander and her ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs) help provide Reyna with stability. Reyna was referred to early intervention at her nine-month checkup.
Scotty Finds His Passion for Baking at SOAR365
When Scotty first tried baking muffins at SOAR365’s Staples Mill location, he got more than a tasty treat – he found a new passion. Mixing ingredients, following recipes, and sharing baked goods with his friends gave him a sense of pride.
Building Futures With Employment Services, One Pizza at a Time
We love when learning can be fun…and delicious! SOAR365 Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS) and Supported Employment participants recently enjoyed a special pizza-making class, thanks to our friends at Performance Foodservice (PFS). But this visit was more than a tasty lunch. It was a hands-on experience designed to build real-world skills and confidence for future jobs.
“They Really Care About Our Family”: How Early Intervention Helped Anna Thrive
When Sloan was pregnant, routine testing showed that her daughter, Anna, had a chromosomal disorder. She was understandably worried. “It can be really scary to have such a severe diagnosis for your child.”
That uncertainty turned to hope when Sloan connected with SOAR365’s Pediatric Therapy program and realized just how helpful SOAR365’s therapists were with little Anna.
A Lifeline for Families. A Launchpad for Independence.

Bringing the World to Adult Day Support Participants, and Vice Versa
At SOAR365, a mix of fresh, creative activities help Adult Day Support participants develop life skills, independence, and meaningful connections. By combining participant input with staff creativity, many of their ideas come to life, including several that provide important real-world experience.
