WHO WILL YOU WORK WITH?
LOCAL EXPERTS.
SkillCorps® teams travel to our International Partner Sites to work with local educators! We believe local teachers are the most qualified professionals in their country -- not us.
LOCAL CAPACITY.
We focus on building local capacity, not our presence. SkillCorps® is a model for training which ensures our partners are empowered and learn to solve their own challenges. 
LASTING CHANGE.
When local professionals can stand as experts in their own country, dissemenation can truly sustain! SkillCorps® volunteers empower advocates across the globe to model change in their own communities.
WHAT HAPPENS ON A SKILLCORPS® TRIP?
Meet the Teams!
Your journey will begin at the Global Autism Project headquarters in NYC! Meet SkillCorps® members traveling all over the world to train teachers and change the world.
Train Teachers!
When you arrive at the partner site, you will spend your first day observing and planning before diving into two weeks of hands-on training. You'll then work with your team to develop a culturally relevant training for the next two weeks at the site!
Explore the Country!
SkillCorps® is all about collaborating and exchanging skills across borders and cultures. It's also all about exploring new places, experiences, and backgrounds! During the weekend between work days, we go on a team excursion!
Collaborate and Share!
After your 2 weeks of training and your excursion, you'll spend your final days working on goals and writing new targets to support the teachers in the partner site. You then fly home with your team!
HOW WILL YOU GET THERE?
SHARING THE MOVEMENT!
As SkillCorps® volunteers, we represent a unique network of advocates for the global autistic community. We believe that every person with autism should be accepted by their community. To encourage others to join our mission, we start with fundraising!

Each SkillCorps® volunteer will have the opportunity to raise money for the Global Autism Project. 
 

A fundraising minimum of $5000 is required for each team member. We call it a minimum because we’ve had many volunteers raise even more!

This is your opportunity to spread the word about the amazing work you are doing, raise awareness for autism internationally, and open a dialogue about sustainable development!


Well, it's a good thing you'll be fundraising with a team of people just like you! We have 15 years of experience crowdfunding, and we have a number of tools to share with you the minute you're accepted to a team. You're not in this alone, we're with you every step of the way!

Of course! Going to another country with a team of strangers? Yep. That's scary. But here's the good news... after the first hour of orientation in NYC, we're no longer strangers. And 100% of the people in that room came here alone as well. And you may just realize in that room, that you've finally found your people. 
 
If you want to be a part of this movement, you can make it work. Yes, you may have to do something new. You may need to ask friends to help, you may need to trade in your weekly iced-coffee to make it happen, but you can do it. Whatever it is, if you want a life-changing experience, if you want to make a change, you are going to have to start now by taking a leap and making a decision. You got this!​​​​​​​
