Our mission

We support individuals and families in building the lives they actually want.

Enoama is a Regional Center of the East Bay vendor serving adults aged 18 and over. Independent Living Services (ILS) builds everyday independence. Parent Support Services (PSS) supports clients who are raising children of their own.

Every session is one-on-one, in your home or community. We don’t deliver a curriculum at you — we work at your pace, on what you choose: cooking the meals you like, riding the bus to work, bathing your baby, getting ready for a meeting about your family. Your goals lead. We follow.

Independent Living Services (ILS)

Real skills. In real places.

Our curriculum follows Title 17 § 56742 — and every single skill is taught in your home, your store, your community.

All 10 ILS services

Parent Support Services (PSS)

Parenting skills, taught in your own home.

One-on-one parenting skills training for adults with developmental disabilities who are raising children.

Our approach

Five principles that guide everything we do.

Person-centered, community-based, and aligned with the federal HCBS Final Rule. These aren’t slogans — they shape every decision we make about how services are delivered.

  • A Home of One's Own

    Services come to where you live. Your home is yours, separate from your supports.

  • Choice & Self-Direction

    You decide what to work on, who supports you, and what success looks like for you.

  • Relationships That Matter

    We work alongside the family, friends, and community already in your corner.

  • Real Community Membership

    Skill-building happens in real grocery stores, real buses, real workplaces — your community.

  • Tailored & Flexible Supports

    Your service plan is built around your goals and adjusts as those goals grow.

What a week looks like

Three sessions a week, about 40 hours a month.

A typical schedule includes three service days, each three to four hours, built around your goals. Here’s a sample week.

  1. A Black woman with Down syndrome prepares vegetables with one-on-one coaching in her kitchen.
    Day 1 · Monday

    A cooking day

    Three to four hours in your kitchen. Plan a recipe, prep ingredients, cook a real meal together. You finish with dinner and a recipe card to keep.

  2. A white woman works through a personal budget with a support professional at her kitchen table.
    Day 2 · Wednesday

    Money & home

    We sit at your kitchen table. Review last week's spending, pay one bill online, schedule a savings transfer. Then knock out laundry and the week's mail.

  3. A Latina woman with Down syndrome taps her transit card as she boards a bus.
    Day 3 · Friday

    Out in the community

    Today's goal: get to your favorite drum circle on your own. Plan the route, ride the bus, manage your fare card, and lead the trip back. We follow your pace.

Our work is simple in principle and demanding in practice: meet every person where they are, respect what they want, and walk with them — not in front of them — toward the life they choose.
