Collaborations with One For All
Art is powerful, and we want the entire world to experience it.
Our mission is really important to us and we can not think of a better way to spread positive change and arts accessibility than to collaborate with other community organizations.
By collaborating with the organizations below, we are all together changing the world for the better, one person at a time.
GRANDFamilies
We are working with the GRANDFamilies organization, alongside the Coatesville Center for Community Health to provide accessible arts programming to Foster Families throughout Chester County. Currently we are running a special youth arts program for children in foster care, working towards their very own gallery exhibition at our Thorndale location.
Courage 2 Succeed
This is Charterhouse’s college program for students with neurological differences, including high functioning autism, learning disabilities, ADHD, and traumatic brain injury. The program seeks to help students learn skills that will help them earn a college degree, work in their chosen field, and live a productive, independent, and happy life. This summer, a Courage to Succeed student that is studying Graphic Design interned with One For All. This collaboration allowed him to apply his classroom knowledge into designing a One For All event flyer. Courage to Succeed and One For All are hoping to continue this positive relationship and look forward to more opportunities to work together.
Community Integrated Services
CIS provides expert employment services to people with disabilities. Since 1991, CIS has helped thousands of people achieve their employment goals. Their mission is to empower people with disabilities through individual employment opportunities that foster self-sustainability, equality, and community.
Through partnerships with public agencies, businesses, schools, universities, and community organizations CIS works to build a more inclusive, diverse, and equitable workforce. This is where One For All comes in! CIS collaborates with us to achieve both of our missions. This summer, CIS workers and volunteers helped One For All students put together their first student exhibition. It was fantastic seeing an entire community coming together to achieve something so positive!
