Inclusive Pathways to Success (IPS) is a school created for young adults with differing abilities. Inclusive Pathways to Success (IPS) is a nonprofit trade school created for young adults (ages 21-36) with differing abilities that empowers students, serves as their ally and builds a new talent pipeline for the skilled trades in the DC area. We do not believe that our students’ disabilities, such as severe ADHD, autism, learning disabilities or mild intellectual impairment, are barriers to employment. IPS purposefully uses the term “differing abilities” and offers a new type of job training that addresses the unique educational needs of this group of adults who are too often underemployed in jobs with few growth opportunities or chronic unemployed. IPS welcomes people who often go through life with unrealized potential and are not traditionally served by post-secondary programs.
