Location

The Adult Achievement Center recently moved from downtown Auburn to Meadow Vista.  It is sharing space at the former Placer Hills Elementary School, a site that is safe and roomy with plenty of outdoor space.  There are opportunities to integrate with other community groups co-located at the site, and a great park is less than 5 minutes walking distance away.
