NEST ACADEMY RVA

Description

Nest Academy RVA is a fast growing, emerging non-profit organization, founded in 2020, filling an unmet need in the Richmond Special Needs Community. Nest’s unique mission is to create learning and social environments for young adults with physical and intellectual disabilities. Nest has created an inclusive community for these members and families by adapting various activities and classroom environments for each member to maximize participation in a group environment.

Members of the Nest Thriving Together Program are mostly high school graduates who are typically non-verbal, in wheelchairs and require adaptive environments and tools to engage.
