At On Angel’s Wings, Inc., we believe that every individual deserves the opportunity to thrive in a supportive, engaging, and loving environment. This belief is at the core of our Adult Day Program and Transportation (DTA), which has been dedicated to enriching the lives of adults with Down Syndrome in Arizona since its inception in 2003.
Our program offers more than just daily activities; it is a place where participants aged 18 and older can develop independence, improve communication skills, and foster meaningful social relationships. Each day is structured to promote personal growth in a setting that feels as warm and inviting as a second home.
On Angel’s Wings day program for adults with Down Syndrome in Phoenix, with other locations throughout the valley, is designed to be both safe and stimulating. It features various areas specialized for different activities—from a well-equipped kitchen for cooking classes to a serene garden space for horticulture therapy. The entire space is wheelchair accessible and designed to meet the needs of all participants, ensuring a comfortable and inclusive environment.
We pride ourselves on a staffing ratio that ensures personalized care, with no more than four or five participants per staff member. Our team is composed of passionate professionals who are not only certified but also share a deep commitment to our mission. They undergo continuous training to stay updated on the best practices for supporting adults with developmental disabilities.
Our activities are the heart of our day program, designed to cater to a wide range of interests and abilities. Here’s a closer look at what a typical day might include:
Integration with the broader community is a key component of our program. Participants engage in various outings and volunteer activities, which help them feel connected to and valued by the wider community. These outings include:
We also host several special events throughout the year, like our much-anticipated annual Thanksgiving dinner, where families join us in celebration, strengthening the community bonds that our program fosters.
