Dear Families, Friends, and Supporters,
Via Services is proud to present the 2016 Via West Campus Summer
Program Registration Catalog. We are thrilled to announce that
beginning in February, you will be able to register for the summer season
online! We continuously strive to improve our programs to better serve you
and to make our processes accessible and easy. To register online, please
visit www.viaservices.org/services/via-west.
This summer, we will be offering our traditional day and overnight
programs, Adventures in Leadership, Altitude programs, and new
adaptive swim clinics. Our diverse sessions offer something for
everyone, and as always, we make every effort to ensure that your
participant has a life-changing experience at Via.
At Via West, we welcome everyone with open arms. We have a
scholarship fund available for those who cannot afford our private pay or
regional center (RC) supplemental daily rates. We are so fortunate to work
with you, our families, and we hope that you continue to make Via your
home away from home.
Thank you for continuing to spread the word about Via West Campus.
Without you, we would be the Bay Area’s best kept secret. See you all
very soon!
Sincerely,
Bryant Roe

SUMMER PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS
Traditional day and overnight programs provide independent living skills and executive functioning, all while having so much
fun. The sessions vary in length and start date, giving participants, parents, and caregivers the opportunity to select programs
that match their interests and lifestyles. Activities will be themed to each session and will include cooking, hiking, music, sports,
dramatic arts, creative arts, community integration, and more. For overnights, check-in times will be from 10:00am-12:00pm on
the first day and check-out times will run from 1:00-3:00pm on the last day. Every session has the option to select day programs
which will run from 9:00am-8:00pm every day of the program except for the first day (which will run from 10:00am-8:00pm), and
the last day (which will not offer a day program).
Adventures in Leadership
Leadership programs are for 3:1 adults with developmental and/or physical disabilities who are ready to master relevant
knowledge, skills, and attitudes for working at Via West in preparation for community work settings while also still
enjoying the activities each session has to offer. To enroll in Beginning Adventures in Leadership, participants must
have completed at least two summer and/or weekend sessions within the past five years. To enroll in More Adventures
in Leadership, participants must have completed at least one of the Beginning Adventures in Leadership programs.
Leadership sessions run concurrently with select traditional overnight programs. Check-in times will be from 10:00am12:00pm on the first day and check-out times will run from 1:00-3:00pm on the last day.
NEW
!
Adaptive Swim Clinic
Our new adaptive swim clinics are for all ages and ratios. Our accessible swim and water safety lessons introduce
participants of any age to the water in one of the two newly-renovated Via West pools. We know from experience that some
participants dive into the water with abandon, others hesitate at the pool edge, and still others want to master some basic
strokes but don’t know where to begin.
Our lessons accommodate all levels, and
are built on the hands-on, kinesthetic
experiences that make our programs so
successful. Lessons are 1 hour long from
10:00am-11:00am at Via West Campus.
Altitude
Altitude is for participants who can
function in a 3:1 or 4:1 ratio, have
conversational language skills, are not
currently struggling with any significant
behavioral challenges, and are typically in
a main stream classroom setting. Please
contact Kirsten Jensen kjensen@
viaservices.org to apply. For SleepAway, check-in will be from 9am to
11am on July 13th, and check-out will
be from 10am to noon on July 24th. For
Mini Altitude, check-in is at 8:00am
each morning and check-out is at
6:00pm each evening Monday through
Friday.

Altitude offers a 12 day overnight summer camp experience
for children with social cognitive challenges including: verbal

build social skills, independence, and self-confidence. We
offer a fun summer vacation where friendships are developed.
With warmth, guidance, and ongoing support, we prepare
our participants for the transition to young adulthood, future
relationships, and the rest of their lives!
Children entering 5th through 12th grade
MINI ALTITUDE
5 day July 18-22, 2016 (MON-FRI)
Mini Altitude provides participants with an opportunity
to engage in the Altitude experience on a smaller scale.
Participants will engage in the same activities as our
sleep-away participants while building important life-skills
in a naturalistic setting. These skills include practicing and
developing social skills as well as executive functioning skills
and coping strategies.
Transportation
We are so excited to offer transportation to and from the Via West Campus from five separate locations across the Bay Area. All
vans will have both a Senior Via West Counselor and Nurse on board. 1:1 participants will have their assigned counselor riding
with them. Check-in will occur with both the counseling staff as well as the nursing staff. Special diet information will be given to
the nursing staff as well. Remaining payments and paperwork, if any, will need to be rendered at the satellite check-in location. It
is very important that parents bring all packing list items as you would if you were bringing the participant to the campus directly.
None of the processes will change. It will be the parent/caregiver’s responsibility to ensure that the participant is changed and fed
as the ride may be up to 90 minutes depending on location and traffic.
We will be providing round trip transportation from San Jose, South San Francisco, Oakland, Santa Cruz, and Salinas. The round
trip cost per participant is $150.00. All pickups for check-in days will be at 10:30 a.m. All drop-offs for check-out days will be at
1:30 p.m. Participants arriving more than 20 minutes after the stated time for check-in will likely miss their pick up van and will need
to find other means to reach the campus. There will not be any refunds given for late arrivals. Parents/caregivers arriving more than
20 minutes after the drop-off time at check-out will be charged $75.00 per hour of waiting time and will have to go to the Via West
Campus to pick up their participant.

Registration is now open for all summer programs. We are not restricting any spaces in our regular programs, however
we do still have a maximum capacity. Spaces are available on a first come, first served basis with deposit to secure
reservation. We strongly encourage you to register online (available beginning in February) or email, fax, or mail
your registration forms as soon as possible. We encourage attendance at multiple sessions as our enhanced thematic
programming will be very different each session. To register online, please visit www.viaservices.org/services/via-west.
If you do not have enough respite hours to cover the full program, then you will be responsible for the Private Pay balance due.
In order for your participant to be marked down as paid, we require:
