On its own, social interactions may not be natural for an adult with disabilities, and in some cases, it may be stressful. If the activity is fun and the group is supportive, it can be a long way toward overcoming this type of emotional obstacle.
SODA provides a safe and fun space for adults with disabilities to meet, socialize and grow friendships.

About US
Our Mission
We provide opportunities for socialization and friendships for adults with disabilities 18 years and older in Solano County and surrounding areas.
Our History
In Solano County, there were not many options for adults with disabilities who wanted to be a part of a peer group or have an active, independent social life.
Most programs were located outside of the county, cost too much, and/or are designed for youth under 18 years old.
We needed a program of our own, in our own community and now we have one.
