My Nonprofit Reviews

The College of Adaptive Arts is a truly remarkable organization fulfilling a vital and often overlooked need in our educational landscape. It provides young adults with special needs a place to continue their life-long learning journey beyond the traditional K-12 school system—a service that is not only essential but profoundly impactful.

Too often, students with differing abilities are left without clear pathways for continued growth after high school. CAA stands as a beacon of inclusion and innovation, ensuring these learners are not sidelined, but instead, supported, inspired, and empowered to thrive. By offering both in-person and online learning, the College of Adaptive Arts creates flexible access to higher education within a community that is uniquely tuned to the needs and aspirations of its students.

What initially drew me to serve CAA was their powerful mission. What keeps me involved is witnessing the real-world impact of that mission—watching students flourish, build confidence, and contribute meaningfully to society. CAA isn’t just changing individual lives—it’s challenging the very definition of what inclusive education can and should look like.

This model belongs on every college campus. The College of Adaptive Arts is not just providing a service—it is leading a movement.

The College of Adaptive Arts is an absolutely essential part of our complex and evolving society. CAA gives an educational home for special-needs students aging out of high school and helps transform their future into a positive and fulfilling experiences. The wide array of classes means that every student can find something that interests them and ensures their continued participation. CAA is a model that can and should be replicated at every college...it not only helps special needs students, but also helps advance our society in general.
