S5: Episode 15: Tina Waters, M.A., Autism Specialist, Community Transition Academy/Community Connection Project
Community Transition Academy (CTA) is a nonprofit, 501(c)3 charitable organization that focuses on providing individuals with developmental disabilities skills they need to live in a more inclusive community while leading by example, true all-ability community inclusion. The Academy is a community and classroom-based, non-public transition high school (NPS) for teens and emerging young adults with developmental disabilities. Community Transition Academy offers a uniquely individualized transition curriculum taught both in the classroom and in the community infused with the evidence-based principles of Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA). CTA's school schedule is unique. CTA operates on a modified year-round school year schedule which includes an Extended School Year (ESY). Community Connection Project is a community-based adult transition program which focuses on providing supported, integrated, community experiences for individuals with significant communication and behavioral challenges. CCP provides natural opportunities for our program participants to discover what they want to do in their adult lives and develop and practice skills to make these choices a reality.
