Where We Are
Golf & Life Skills
Through generous grants from the USGA, PGA, Harry C. Moore Foundation and Wadsworth Golf Charities, the ViaQuest Foundation’s Golf & Life Skills program helps to teach life skills through the game of golf. Our program is headed by PGA professional Derek Kinzer. The ViaQuest Foundation’s Golf & Life Skills program is the only USGA and PGA funded golf program in the country which is targeted specifically to those on the autism spectrum.
Community Integration
The ViaQuest Foundation’s Community Integration Program introduces life and social skills to adolescents facing intellectual, emotional and behavioral challenges. The Foundation hosts many events throughout the year to teach and reinforce life skills lessons, including a formal Prom dance, and trips to museums, sporting events, theater performances and the library. Participants learn proper behavior and etiquette in each of these unique, public settings.
Where We're Going
The ViaQuest Foundation is developing additional innovative programming to offer diverse opportunities to more adolescents and young adults.
Fine Arts & Life Skills
Participants will have an incredible opportunity to create, see, participate in, listen to and learn about a variety of art forms through The ViaQuest Foundation’s Fine Arts and Life Skills program. We look forward to providing programming that represents a number of artistic styles, including interdisciplinary arts, music, crafts, visual arts, theater, dance, folk art and literature.
Technology & Life Skills
Our Technology & Life Skills program will include lessons on: How to operate computers and associated equipment, how to communicate using digital media, and basic filming, editing, and production techniques.
