BENEFITS OF MEMBERSHIP

ADCAT brings together individuals, businesses, academia, and government to wield a collective power that is much greater than the sum of our parts!

• Networking Our members are generally recognized as Texas finest and most experienced adult day care providers. Meetings, local and statewide educational programs, conferences, and committee work offer ADCAT members a unique opportunity for an exchange of ideas between Adult Day Care providers, elected officials, regulators, and other health care professionals and supporters.

Each Region elects a representative to serve on the ADCAT board. Through this representation, members are kept fully informed at the regional meetings about statewide and association issues, which will affect their local operations.
