TACT TACT is a fully accredited and award-winning 501(c)3 designed to bring trade and technical skills to neurodiverse children and adults.

TACT (Teaching the Autism Community Trades) is a Denver-based nonprofit organization founded to encourage and empower the full spectrum of individuals with autism through skilled trades education and employment. Addressing the needs of the ASD community which experiences a 90% unemployment rate, TACT offers a strengths-based program developed specifically to provide training and create meaningful

employment opportunities that are personally fulfilling to each individual student. For the autism community, TACT creates a future full of purpose and promise. The Autism community is the highest unemployment sector in the US, currently at 90%. TACT’s programs lead to employable jobs + lasting careers that are personally fulfilling and suited to each individual’s strengths. We envision a world where neurodiversity is not only embraced but inherently valued. A world where the full spectrum of the autism community can contribute their talents and gifts and find personal fulfillment.

Build with TACT!

A big thank you to Autonation Subaru Arapahoe for their $25,000 sponsorship of our upcoming event, in partnership with the Nimoy-Knight Foundation and The Fedcap Group at Civic Hall in NYC.

This is the first of TWO celebrations we’re having in October to create more opportunity for our community.

It takes us all working together to create the future our community deserves, and we couldn’t do it without an incredible team and partnerships.

Celebrate Impact. Build a Legacy

For the past decade, TACT has worked to change the narrative around autism, employment, and what opportunity can look like.

Not charity.
Not limitations.
Not lowering expectations.

Talent. Skill. Purpose. Possibility.

And none of that happens alone.

It wouldn’t be possible without our incredible team, community, business partners, and sponsors. Our sponsors are partners in creating a future where neurodivergent individuals are recognized for what they can contribute—and given the opportunity to prove it.

When you sponsor TACT, you’re investing, and you’re helping build careers, strengthen families, change perceptions, and create opportunities that can last for generations.

That’s impact.

That’s legacy.

And together, we’re changing the narrative of what’s possible.
Become a sponsor. Help us celebrate all we’ve achieved and cement our legacy.

We were honored to welcome U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon to TACT’s main campus in Colorado today.

During her visit, we showed Secretary McMahon how TACT is creating pathways into the skilled trades for neurodiverse students by connecting hands-on education with the skills and confidence that lead to sustainable employment opportunities.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to showcase our programs and an approach to education built around people’s strengths and connected directly to the workforce.

Thank you, Secretary McMahon, for visiting TACT and recognizing the important role the trades can play in expanding opportunity.

10 Years of Impact from an Amazing Team

For ten years, TACT has shown that when neurodivergent individuals are given the right training, support, and opportunity, incredible things happen.

A sponsorship of TACT is an investment in people. It helps provide hands-on education, industry-recognized training, mentorship, employment pathways, and the opportunity for students to discover what they are capable of.

As we celebrate a decade of impact, we’re looking for businesses and community leaders who want to help build the next decade with us.

Become a TACT sponsor and help us create more stories like Kevin’s. Join us here: https://www.buildwithtact.org/2026-gala
