The Adult Day Program
The Creekside Adult Program (CAP) serves adults 22+ with profound autism and significant support needs.
After our first students graduated, we noticed that there was a clear lack of adult programs designed to support individuals with profound autism. CAP ensures that Creekside students have access to lifelong learning.
By building on the values that define The Creekside School, we create spaces for connection, purpose, and joy through meaningful activities from community outings across San Jose to more personally aligned choices showcased in our MakerSpace.
Guided by each participant's Individual Program Plan (IPP) and their Person-Centered Plan (PCP), the Creekside Adult Program supports each participant as they live a fulfilling life that honors their individuality and strengths.
Long-Term Goal
We support our students in achieving greater independence by helping them:
Academic Skills
Develop academic skills that they can apply across multiple life contexts
Communication & Social Skills
Build effective communication and social skills to promote meaningful interactions
Positive Behaviors & Self-Regulation
Learn positive behaviors and self-regulation strategies
Life Skills & Community
Gain life skills and experience through frequent and meaningful interactions in the community
Community Partnerships
Community-Based Instruction (CBI) is an integral part of the Creekside approach, focusing on real-world application of skills. Through CBI, we support students in building independence and confidence by engaging with their community.
