Our Origins

Valley Adult Day Services’ history began early in 1989 when two local Reverends determined that there was a serious need for an Adult Day Care to provide respite to the caregivers of Tulare County. VADS officially opened on April 2, 1990 and has since served thousands of caregivers, loving families, and relatives.


Originally VADS was founded as Porterville Senior Day Care (PSDC), renamed as Porterville Adult Day Services (PADS) in 2002, and then in 2015 became known as Valley Adult Day Services.


VADS’ mission is to be “Your Caregiving Partner”. Our vision is to provide adult services honoring choice, dignity, independence and quality of life. We serve those adults who cannot stay home alone, including those with Alzheimer’s disease and other related forms of dementia, and provide continuing support for caregivers.

Adult Day Program (ADP)

Valley Adult Day Services warmly welcomes individuals facing challenges that make staying home alone unsafe. Our compassionate Adult Day Program provides a secure haven. Within our program, participants not only find safety but also a nurturing environment filled with enriching activities and wholesome meals.


At VADS, our hearts are dedicated to seniors aged 60 and above who seek personal care services, supervision, or assistance with daily living activities. Our Adult Day Program is designed with a deep commitment to preventing premature or unsuitable institutional placement, fostering a sense of belonging and support. Those diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia are warmly embraced, without any age or financial restrictions. For those in need of financial assistance, our Scholarship Program is available.


For more information or to connect with our caring team, please reach out to our office at (559) 783-9815 or visit us at 227 E. Oak Ave. in Porterville. We are here to provide not just a program but a place filled with compassion and genuine care.
