About Life Services Alternatives

Life Services Alternatives provides exceptional community living and programs for adults with developmental disabilities.

In our county, there is a housing shortage for adults with development disabilities. In the past 4 years, over 40 programs have closed due staffing issues, low government rates and the high cost of living in the Silicon Valley. A high percentage of adults with developmental disabilities live at home with their parents. Unfortunately, parents age, have health issues, or they can no longer care for their adult child. Parents worry about who will take care of their adult child when they no longer can.

Life Services Alternatives helps to alleviate those worries. We opened our first three homes in 2004 in Santa Clara. It was a goal of Life Services Alternatives to establish homes where residents could grow and thrive in a non-institutional setting. We currently have 15 licensed homes throughout Santa Clara County (San Jose, Campbell, Santa Clara and Morgan Hill) that are home to men and women who are developmentally disabled. Our residents’ range in age from 20 to 80 years old with a wide range of disabilities. 16th home is in the process of renovation and retrofitting to meet the community home standards. Five of our fifteen homes are for individuals who have special health care needs and intensive support needs. Our remaining nine homes, are home to residents who need 24-hour a day, non-medical care and supervision. It is Life Services Alternatives goal to continue to open new homes in our county where residents can live their best possible lives. Your support is needed to reach our

goal. Your donation is greatly appreciated and will help change the lives of a developmentally disabled adult.

Experience the thrill of 10th Annual SJVRC ONE MILE FOR ONE CHILD Charity Running Event. Join us along with other fellow runners around the world of all ages and skill levels to promote running and embrace a healthy lifestyle, while raising funds to support the less fortunate children in Vietnam and Thailand. We are too far to touch hands but not too far to touch hearts.

Please join us in person, or virtual, on Sunday, September 20th, 2026 at Almaden Lake Park (Arroyo Picnic Area). The address of the park is 5989 Winfield Blvd, San Jose, CA 95123.

Check in time: 7 - 8AM

The race will start at 8:30AM.

The County of Santa Clara Reentry Resource Center and its partners are hosting a 5K run/walk to raise money to support the immediate needs of justice-involved people (clothing, food, hygiene, transportation, etc.). The in-person 5K will take place on Saturday, October 17th at Hellyer County Park with a race start time of 9:00AM. Participants who choose the virtual option can run or walk the race on the day and time of their choice between October 17, 2026, and October 31, 2026. Runners will receive a Rise Up and Run race shirt and medal.

Packet pickup information will be coming soon.

Help support this effort by registering for the race, sponsoring other participants to run or donating to buy new clothes for those reentering our community from jail or prison. Many of these individuals have no clean clothes in which to start their reentry journey.

Here are some ways you can help:

• Register and run the race!

• Sponsor a race registration for an individual or a family.

• Donate monetarily to buy new clothes for individuals released from custody.

• Buy or donate new clothes for reentry clients leaving custody.

Every day at the County of Santa Clara Reentry Resource Center we see clients ready to make dramatic changes in their lives. But having a felony record can be almost as restrictive as being incarcerated. Access to jobs, housing, and other opportunities becomes incredibly limited due to employment and housing restrictions and social stigma.

Yet despite these challenges, we see clients determined to clear those hurdles. They are taking college credit classes, working their way up from minimum wage jobs to management positions and union apprenticeships and some are entering peer mentoring and counseling professions to help those who are following in their footsteps.

You can help support individuals who are just starting this journey to change their lives and share their talents with our community. Each person you help to rise up makes our community stronger.

We look forward to partnering with you for social change.
