What is Campus Connections?

Campus Connections is an innovative college support program designed to support students with disabilities as they attend the post-secondary institution of their choice. Our team uses the Wraparound Planning Process and the Birkman Method Assessment to build an individualized support team, which pairs each student with a coach who provides mentoring, guidance, and navigational support. The goal of the program is to empower students to problem solve their concerns more effectively and efficiently while also fostering informed choice and greater self-advocacy.

Whether it’s community college, trade school, a four year university, or a certification program, Campus Connections is equipped to support any post-secondary students with disabilities at any institution as long as they meet all admission requirements.

Program Details

Our college support program includes:

  • Initial and ongoing career assessment focused on student strengths, interest, and career goals
  • Individual weekly support session with coach
  • Monthly wraparound meetings with coach and any other support person the student elects (their parents, VR counselor, DRC staff, etc.)
  • Additional support as needed in-person or virtually via text, email, phone or video call
  • Group skills training and activities will be offered via in-person or virtual delivery focused on:
    • Soft skills
