About
The Launch Program is a program for stuents with intellectual disabilities who want a college experience. We've partnered with the UofA to provide this experience and part of what these students get to experience is a college social life! We pair you with a Launch student you "just hang out." You can get coffee on campus, be an exercise partner at the HPER, come back to our main building and play air hockey, maybe ensure the Launch student is completing his/her homework, etc. This is an experience that is meant to build social skills, but also friendships and to be a fun experience for everyone! Our classes end at 2, so typically you will meet with a student from 2 to 3:30 one day a week (or more if you're available).
