The vision of the Compass Transition Academy is for every intern that receives training to finish the program with the skills needed to enter a viable post-secondary option. Our mission is to provide quality, engaging, person-centered programming in the areas of employment, interpersonal skills and independent living skills to prepare each intern for postsecondary success.
