There is so much more to build, and your support is what allows us to continue this work.

“We supported you, but you did the work.” 💙

As a new school year begins, we’re reflecting on this message from Ivan Rosenberg.

His words capture what’s at the heart of every Uniquely Abled Academy: the support of staff, families, and others who help create a foundation for success, and the hard work of the students who make it happen.

To every graduate: congratulations on all you’ve accomplished.

And to the students beginning their journey this year: we’re excited to see what’s ahead. 🎓

🤝 We're proud to partner with organizations like Mastercam that believe talent comes in many forms.

As we celebrate the 36th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, we're reminded that creating inclusive pathways into manufacturing takes collaboration.

Thank you, Mastercam, for your continued partnership and for helping raise awareness of this important milestone. 💙

Mastercam is proud to recognize the 36th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) this Sunday, July 26th - a landmark legislation that helps ensure people with disabilities have the same rights and opportunities as everyone else.

Through the efforts of the Mastercam DEI Council and partnerships like The Uniquely Abled Project, we're committed to supporting greater accessibility, inclusion, and workforce opportunities across the manufacturing industry.

Together, we're helping create pathways for talented individuals of all abilities to build meaningful careers in manufacturing.

From student to future manufacturing professional, Patrick’s journey is a powerful example of what can happen when talent meets opportunity. 🌟

Patrick, a recent graduate of the Uniquely Abled Academy at Hudson Valley Community College, shared his story during Camp Media Day, part of the Uniquely Abled Academy Advanced Manufacturing Inclusion Bootcamp.

In his speech, Patrick shared how UAA helped him build confidence, develop new skills, and find a community that supported him along the way.

“Now, I’ll be looking forward to a career… That’s what I acquired at UAA: I have an opportunity to find a career I enjoy, and a future I’m happy with.”

As Patrick prepares to pursue his two-year manufacturing degree, we’re proud to celebrate all he has accomplished and excited to see where his journey takes him next. 🎉

A behind-the-scenes look at manufacturing can make a lasting impact. 👀⚙️

Thank you to PVA for welcoming UAA students for a facility tour and giving them the opportunity to see firsthand how products are designed, built, and brought to life.

We encourage manufacturers to open their doors and share their expertise they help inspire the next generation of talent. 💪
