A LITTLE ABOUT US
We started Stable Life because we have a family member with special needs. He cannot work due to his difficulties and is considered pre-vocational. We started Stable Life so that some day he can go to an office just like his younger brother does. As of November 1st, 2021 we have done it! Leased a beautiful office space in Seascape Village, Aptos! We are now in the process of creating an offshoot business and organizing classes! Regional Center adults can have access to all we have to offer. Coming soon!
When it comes to respite we put parents’ needs first with a close second being the caregivers’ needs. We strive to pay the highest rate to caregivers and streamline the hiring process. Our caregivers are companions for our clients. They bring friendship and caring to every home.
Our founders have years of experience working with individuals with special needs and have successfully started and run another special needs non-profit which is still thriving to this day.
Vision of the Future
We have leased a beautiful and exciting retail/office space in Seascape Village, Aptos. This space is our Community Activities Hub where we are in the process of opening a Gift Shop to provide pre-vocational activities for our adults with special needs. We’re also starting social/recreational* activities including music, dance, art, cooking, yoga, functional fitness. The Hub is a place where learning new skills and branching out into the community is a daily event. By partnering with local businesses and organizations we plan to cultivate a strong sense of community with fun and inclusive activities and events that everyone can enjoy. We are a resource for the Self Determination Program.
Come, join the fun and get involved!
