Placer ARC – On the Go!

Specialties

On The Go! provides the opportunity for our clients to do the things that everyone else does. A night with friends at the bowling alley, sporting and cultural events, group dinners and trips to local festivals –these are the things that are important to everyone, but can be difficult for Placer ARC’s clients to take part in without the support offered by On The Go! Our clients actively engage in community and social events outside of our brick-​and-​mortar day programs, explore their interests and passions, discover that which adds fulfillment to their lives, and build a positive presence in the community. On The Go! offers programs for adults and for high school students.
