TACT (Teaching the Autism Community Trades) is the first and only program of its kind in the country. Its immersive, hands-on vocational training effectively prepares young people with ASD — who now represent 1 in 59 children between the ages of 3 through 17, for skilled trade careers that are the fastest growing and most difficult-to-fill professions in the country.
Over its short history, TACT has made a tremendous difference in the Denver autism community, more than doubling its program offerings, supporting and training 400 participants in skilled trades, and connecting 80% of its working-age students to their first employment opportunities.
