Building
Independence.
Empowering
Potential.
Next Level Day Program is developing a community-based Behavioral Day Services program for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities in San Diego County. The community is our classroom — where participants will build independence, confidence, and meaningful lives through individualized, goal-aligned support, not inside a single building. We are opening soon.
Empowering adults to achieve greater independence and active community participation
We partner with California Regional Centers, families, conservators, supported living agencies, and care providers to deliver high-quality services that improve quality of life while promoting dignity, respect, and personal growth.

A purely community-based program — San Diego is our facility
Next Level Day Program is not a traditional, facility-based day program. We don't operate out of one building where participants spend their day. Instead, San Diego itself is our program space. Each day, participants are picked up door-to-door and engage in structured activities, vocational learning, wellness, and real-world experiences at community venues throughout San Diego County.
The community is our classroom — and transportation gets us there
Instead of staying inside one building all day, participants will experience San Diego through structured, supervised community-based learning. We have secured one SUV, and a passenger van is planned. At opening, we intend to use both to coordinate pickup, return transportation, and travel between community activities throughout our service area. Vehicle details, capacity, and service boundaries will be confirmed before services begin.
Planned Transportation
We have secured one SUV; a passenger van is planned. Both will be used at opening, subject to final readiness and capacity confirmation.
Transportation Technology
We plan to keep families informed about transportation through the Family Portal.

The community is our classroom
Next Level Day Program is not a traditional adult day program where participants stay inside one building all day. Every week, our participants experience San Diego through structured educational, recreational, vocational, and community-based activities. Every outing is purposeful — designed to build independence, confidence, communication, social interaction, life skills, and community participation.
Where we go
Each day begins with door-to-door pickup. Participants spend the day engaged in structured community experiences across San Diego — not inside a single building.
Why our model is different
The team we are building
We plan to build a dedicated team of direct support professionals, program managers, and a qualified behavior support consultant before opening. Every staff member will receive training in evidence-based, person-centered practices.
Direct Support Professionals
Individualized participant support
Program Managers
Coordinating individualized program plans
Behavior Support Consultant
Positive behavior support (to be secured before opening)
Employment Specialists
