Golden House Adult Developmental Center has run an adult day program in Alameda since 1985 for adults with developmental disabilities. It is partnered with the Regional Center of the East Bay and specializes in behavior management, using non-violent crisis intervention, de-escalation and positive reinforcement for people who display behavioral challenges and need supervision. Programming focuses on self-care and independence training, pre-vocational skills and interest-based learning, with 1:1 and 1:3 staff-to-participant ratios. A reviewer says they like the staff and that the place is always clean. It is licensed by the California Department of Social Services as an Adult Day Program for up to 21 participants.

Self-care and independence training covers cooking, budgeting, personal hygiene and using transportation, taught with step-by-step methods, visual aids or assistive technology. Pre-vocational training works on time management, teamwork and problem-solving, including resume building and mock interviews. Interest-based learning draws on hobbies like art, music and technology.
