Our Mission

TU CASA's mission is to offer a fully inclusive university experience for students with intellectual disabilities by providing them with access and opportunity to the same services, programs, and courses as other Texas A&M University students. Each student’s experience will be individually designed to reflect their interests, preferences, and future goals. This individualized approach will support inclusive experiences leading to meaningful employment and improved adulthood. Participation in TU CASA will lead to a 1.5 year-long University and Career Experience Certificate (UCEC) and a career pathway for employment and the development of independent living skills through a person-centered approach.
