So we want to say this clearly: ADAKC is still here. 💙

While our adult day program has closed, our commitment to Kern County families affected by Alzheimer’s and dementia remains strong.

Our team is now organizing 45 years of dementia-care experience around a broader model of support — one designed to reach more families, more caregivers, more professionals, and more communities.

Whether you are navigating a new diagnosis, caring for a loved one, looking for resources, or seeking education, ADAKC remains a place to turn.

Support is not going away. It is expanding.
