Minnesota Independence College and Community (MICC)

Description

Minnesota Independence College and Community (MICC) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit vocational and life skills training program for autistic and neurodivergent young adults. Since our founding in 1996, MICC has remained dedicated to helping our participants make successful transitions towards independent living and self-sufficiency.

At MICC, we believe that learning about life first-hand within a supportive community in a vibrant city is the best way to gain independence. We do this first by offering an apartment living College Program that teaches important life, social, and vocational skills. Then, through our unique Community Program, we continue to offer our participants lifelong supports through our programs in social engagement, emotional support, safety, wellness, independent living skills, and careers.
