My Project

Students in functional/adaptive units prioritize curriculums aligned to both academics and essential life skills for their transition to an independent and fulfilling life after graduation. To empower teachers in equipping students with the necessary knowledge, tools must be available to facilitate access to the curriculum for teaching these valuable life skills.

With your support, we will have the opportunity to equip our students with the resources they need to not just succeed, but excel in their future endeavors.

The mentioned resources are essential for creating a comprehensive curriculum that empowers students with necessary information for fostering their independence.
