Help Us Build "By Us, For Us" Disability Services

We are Options for College Success, a disabled-run nonprofit operating just north of Chicago.

Our neurodivergent team redefines what post-secondary life can look like for developmentally disabled young adults through one-on-one life skills coaching, group support programming, and integrated community outreach.

At Options, participants are the architects of their own lives. With our scaffolded support, they build the future that they want for themselves–from living independently to pursuing the next step in their education or career.

Our goal of $20,000 would cover one month of our operating budget. With that budget squared away, we will have the time and resources for what comes next: bringing a neurodiversity model and our exceptional services to even more members of our community.

We already have projects in development to make our resources on executive functioning and self-advocacy more available and accessible. We also have plans to connect more disabled people together to build a future where the dignity, agency, and happiness of every disabled person is respected and celebrated.

You can join us by donating, by sharing our campaign, and by visiting our website for more information.

Together, we can create more options for even more success.
