Las Trampas, Inc.

Since 1958, Las Trampas has supported people with developmental disabilities to discover their capabilities and to lead fuller lives in their homes, at work, and in the community. For one person that might be training in life skills that enable him to share an apartment. For another it may be job coaching so she can earn a paycheck. All services are based on the person's individualized plan. Las Trampas is committed to helping each person succeed in all aspects of daily living.

Las Trampas' services include:

Licensed Homes (Level 4) with nursing and behavioral support

Supported Living Services and Independent Living Services

Adult Vocational and Developmental Day Programs

When the California state budget passes, Las Trampas may feel the blow of a cut of almost $200,000. Won't you please join us in supporting Las Trampas, Inc. by making a donation and/or collect contributions from family and friends in honor of your efforts in the "Walk n' Roll" event. Your generous support will make a difference in the lives of people with developmental disabilities.
