Community Access Inc

Community Access, Inc. (CAI) is a nonprofit organization based in Brooklyn, NY, that was established in 1992 to provide supported employment and follow-up services for students with disabilities transitioning into the workforce. Over the years, CAI has evolved into a consumer-driven grassroots organization, addressing various unmet needs in the community through innovative projects and programs. Committed to systems change, CAI operates primarily on state and federal grant funding, allowing them to develop cost-effective and person-friendly programming strategies that focus on alternatives to traditional models.

With a core belief in the right of every citizen to fully participate in their community, CAI's projects have consistently upheld this value. Their work ranges from assisting veterans with brain injuries or post-traumatic stress disorder to training special education teachers to become vendors with the West Virginia Division of Rehabilitation Services. They also strive to find better community options for individuals, reducing reliance on nursing home placements. Through their website, CAI provides information on past and present projects, as well as links to organization information and news.
