FIU Embrace Center for Advancing Inclusive Communities provides a person-focused, household-centric approach, while recognizing that every differently abled person deserves to be treated as an individual with special talents and challenges. By promoting health, wellness, education, and overall functioning, we help adults with different abilities, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), intellectual disabilities (ID), and other neurodevelopmental disorders (OND), lead healthy active lives.
Backed by FIU, a world-class research institution, our ultimate vision is to bring together thought leadership, models of care, and research to create a better world for differently abled individuals, parents, and caregivers. We aim to build a global network of professionals, universities, organizations, and public officials, establishing an epicenter for the research and development of inclusive models and systems all over the world.
