Elevate at ACC was established in 2016 to provide inclusive higher education for students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) to foster academic growth, prepare for gainful employment, develop needed skills for independent living, and engage socially with the broader campus community. The program provides students with a holistic higher education experience that is designed to be a progression of fully-inclusive academic courses, outcome-focused vocational preparation, student-centered personal development, and naturally-supported campus involvement. Elevate students are held to high standards and empowered to take responsibility for their future goals. Each student partners with an Elevate team member to collaboratively design an Individualized Academic Plan, which aligns with the student’s identified career goal and also affords them the opportunity to grow personally, developing needed skills for future employment.
