An adult day program that helps self-advocates in learning skills they will need for jobs, volunteer positions, or college. Activities take place in the community, not at the self-advocate's home. The provider may be chosen by the self-advocate or family member, but they cannot be the provider themselves.

Participant-Directed Community-Based Training for Adults helps individuals build skills for employment, volunteering, or further education in community settings.

The service is directed by the consumer, family member, or conservator, who selects a qualified adult provider (not themselves), and services are delivered in natural community environments, not in the home.
