Our mission is to provide an environment where our adult students with differing abilities can flourish and thrive and continue to push the boundaries of their potential.

We are redefining the term "disability" and refocusing the lens away from what adults can't do to what they are capable of doing with the abilities, passions and interests they possess.

In order make our classes and programs accessible to our students and their families, we charge NO TUITION for adults with differing abilities. We need your donations to help us provide inclusive opportunities for our students and enable us to achieve our mission.

College Students in Action!

     

Where will your money go?

Where will your $$ go?

CAA provides classes and programs free-of-charge to adults with disabilities. These individuals and families are often on fixed incomes and cannot afford the $300 to $500 per semester it would normally cost them.

Your $$ will support:

1) Door-to-door transportation options

2) Classes available at no cost for adults with differing abilities

3) Living wages with medical benefits for our staff

4) On-campus employment opportunities for adults with physical and "hidden" differing abilities

Help CAA become a success!

Please let your college students know how wonderful your Showboaters were.  The songs & motions from Grease were so much fun to watch.  I love how enthusiastic your performers were and how they acted out things so well.  I heard that the singers on Saturday were wonderful as well.  The clients really enjoyed their performance.  It was so nice for many of your performers to greet the different clients and talk to them.
 
About the Puppeteer Performance:  Thank you and your students (and teachers) for an amazing puppeteer performance.  The audience seemed captivated by the subject matter and music.  I loved the individual dancing by the students.  Your school song made me cry a bit.  It was so heartfelt (it was fun to do the movements to that, too).
