Overview
We are committed to serving teens and adults with autism and intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (I/DD) wherever they are on their journey, by providing support both in class and on campus. Currently, we participate in the InclusiveU Program at Syracuse University.

- Help facilitating school work and communication with school staff.
- On-campus activities and campus community engagement.
- Participants develop work readiness skills with support in work environments on the Utica University Campus.
- Focus is on achieving competitive employment.
- Provide daily classroom instruction and hands-on work experience.
