Mission

We present one-on-one support and opportunities for skill building, including full inclusion in university life, to adults with intellectual disabilities. Our goal upon Program completion is for students to be independent, gainfully employed self-advocates, and thriving members of their community.


Succeed Pillars

The purpose of Succeed is to encourage and develop pathways toward student independence. We achieve these goals through four pillars: 

  • Live
  • Learn
  • Work
  • Play
