CAP Sponsor A Client

$1000

Help us fund CAP's Community Outings!

Connections Adult Program is a one of a kind program in this area where our adults can continue to learn and grow. Connections Adult Program is funded by the Agency for Persons with Disabilities at an average of $6.30 per client per hour. Most organizations with adult programs either do not participate in the Agencies for Persons with Disabilities funding or accept our clients. Please help us fund the additional community outings we would like our clients to participate in at a cost of approximately $1,000 a client a year!

Connections' Fine Arts

$2000

Connections Arts and Enrichment Program

The arts of music, dance, singing, yoga and visual arts give the individual with autism an additional way to learn and respond to the surrounding world. For a person with autism, the arts create a way to communicate and express their thoughts and feelings in a unique way. Expressing feelings and ideas through images or movement is natural and can be a welcome relief from the daily struggle to use words effectively. Instruction in music, art, dance, and singing can foster a connection to others, increase self-esteem, language , decision making, and creativity in a non- threatening way.

$2,000 sponsors 1 class for fine arts for 1 year!

Connections in the Community

For families of individuals with autism, it may be difficult to imagine their loved one out in the world going to movie theaters, gyms, grocery stores, sporting events, malls, museums, or performances. The purpose of the Connect to the Community Program is to provide our students and adults the opportunity to learn and practice the social, communication, and behavioral skills that will enable them to successfully enjoy these activities with friends and family. Most importantly every activity helps our students/clients grow in independence, confidence, and self-esteem while they become active participants in society.

$2,000 covers one group trip such as 1 trip to Island Dolphin Care

Connections' Camp Scholarship

$3200

Sponsor 1 student for camp for 1 summer.
Unfortunately the cost of camp for our special needs families is out of reach and the scholarships available have restrictive requirements. $3,200 sponsors one student for 1 whole summer.

This sponsorship will provide funding for daily activities, field trips, snacks, and arts and crafts.

For many parents, finding a camp that not only accepts but also effectively accommodates their child's unique needs can be an immense challenge. We understand the struggles parents face, especially when they must balance work responsibilities while ensuring their child receives the care and support they deserve.

We empathize with the difficulties parents encounter and strive to alleviate their concerns by offering a safe and enriching environment where their child can thrive.

While we endeavor to provide as many scholarships as possible to assist families in need, we also acknowledge the financial constraints associated with maintaining an appropriate staff-to-student ratio. Our commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of every child necessitates adequate funding to cover essential expenses, including qualified staff members who can effectively address the diverse needs of our campers.
