Members of our employee resource groups, Boundless@WTP and Women@WTP, recently attended the Abilities Uncorked Benefit in support of Columbia Ability Alliance. Bechtel was proud to sponsor this year’s event, which raised $191,000 to help empower individuals with disabilities and other life barriers through programs and services to achieve greater independence, confidence, and opportunities.

We’re proud to support organizations making a meaningful impact across our community! 💙

When school ends, parents are suddenly trying to balance work, routines, and full days at home, while making sure their teen or young adult has meaningful activities, social connection, and the support they need. For families of youth with developmental and/or physical disabilities, that challenge can be even greater.

That’s one of the reasons Columbia Ability Alliance created Nexus Social Club.

Nexus Social Club gives teens and young adults ages 12–22 a safe, fun, and structured summer experience filled with:
🌲 Outdoor adventures
🎨 Creative activities
💦 Water fun
🏊 Swimming
🧪 Science experiments
🤝 Friendships & social connection

And for families, it provides something just as important:
💙 Planned support
💙 Reliable structure
💙 Valuable respite

Because everyone deserves a summer they can enjoy.
