Minnesota Independence College & Community (MICC)
Minnesota Independence College and Community (MICC) is a nonprofit vocational and life skills training program for autistic and neurodiverse young adults. For over 25 years, our unique campus in Richfield, Minnesota, has provided participants who desire growing independence with the opportunity to engage in hands-on learning, education, support, and resources.
Our programs deliver curriculum and services in the areas of independent living skills, social and emotional learning, career skills and employment, and healthy living. We offer five distinct programs starting with our Summer Program, leading to our three-year College and Careers Programs, and next, with our life-long Community Program. Finally, our vibrant Social Program is integrated into our summer, three-year, and life-long program options.
MICC College.
The College Program is a three-year program that offers participants the opportunity to build foundational independent living skills while living on-campus and building relationships through activities and classes. Experiential learning is a cornerstone in all of our programming and paramount for participants to gain real-world knowledge to build independent living skills, vocational skills, and a network of personal relationships.
MICC Careers.
The Careers Program is integrated into both our three-year College Program and lifelong Community Program. Careers focuses on vocational skill development and the skills required to get and keep a job through an individualized, person-centered process to obtain access to the services, supports, and resources of participant’s choice to achieve their desired career outcome. MICC has partnered with Century College to provide career certificate programs as part of our College curriculum in the areas of Culinary, Hospitality, Retail, and Health Services. Person-centered support services are provided through vocational skill-building curriculum and activities, and practicum experiences.
MICC Community.
The Community Program strives to empower College graduates to achieve their highest level of long-term independence in the community. Programming and service options are designed to provide person-centered social and emotional and problem-solving services, positive health and wellness supports, and continuing independent living skills development.
MICC Social.
The Social Engagement Program provides structured programming for participants to find their passions, develop friendships, and maintain healthy and active lifestyles to enhance their quality of life. Participants develop a sense of belonging and are accepted as their authentic selves while contributing positively to their community.
MICC Summer.
The Summer Program helps to develop valuable introductory independence skills. Taking the best of what MICC provides and incorporating a dynamic mix of expert staff from MICC’s comprehensive College and Careers Programs ensures a fantastic summer opportunity
