Center for Disabilities Studies : Adult Services Initiatives : Community-based Education Alliance (CBEA)

Community-based Education Alliance

The Community-Based Education Alliance (CBEA) is a University-School District collaborative effort to provide consumer driven, person centered, educational model program for students (ages 18-21) with moderate to severe disabilities as they transition from school to adult life and work setting. Participating school districts include: Red Clay Consolidated, New Castle County Vo-Tech, and Delaware Autism Program.

Students enrolled are provided with the least restrictive, age appropriate environment at the University of Delaware and surrounding community. CBEA’s intent is to maximize the opportunities and support provided so the individuals may achieve independence, productivity, and full integration.
