- Recreation and interests. Basketball, art, baking, ASL and more.
- Social skills and self-advocacy. Communicating needs and building connections.
- Executive functioning. Planning the day and following through.
Funding

Common questions
Helpful answers before we talk.
Goals are individualized. They may include daily living, cooking, organization, social skills, money and planning, community participation, technology, work-related skills, recreation, executive functioning, or other practical goals that matter to the learner.
Not necessarily. If you already have a relevant assessment, we can review it and use that information to help shape the learning plan. If you do not have an assessment, we can complete one when it would be helpful in understanding strengths, needs, and goals.
Yes. ElevateAbility works with participants using California’s Regional Center Self-Determination Program. We can talk with participants, families, Independent Facilitators, Financial Management Service (FMS) providers, Service Coordinators, and other members of the planning team about how ElevateAbility services may fit within an individual’s plan and spending plan.
The free consultation is a chance to tell us what you’re looking for, ask questions, and learn more about ElevateAbility. We’ll talk about the learner’s goals and help you understand what getting started could look like.
