MISSION AND PROGRAMS
Mission
The mission of the Adaptive Design Association is to ensure that children with disabilities get the customized equipment they need to participate fully in home, school, and community life.
Programs
Training: ADA offers training in adaptive design and construction techniques to occupational and physical therapists, teachers, designers, parents, volunteers, and the wider community. Through hands-on instruction, participants use common tools and building materials to turn their ideas into functional equipment. ADA's courses stress shared decision-making to ensure that all equipment is therapeutically appropriate and welcomed by the child, family, and professional support team. Equipment Development: ADA operates a community-based workshop where professionals and parents collaborate with ADA on creating child-specific adaptive equipment. ADA uses affordable building materials including corrugated cardboard, wood, plastic, and basic electronics. Our work is rooted in the spirit of "Appropriate Technology," a problem-solving approach used worldwide involving the direct beneficiaries in the implementation of cost-effective and practical solutions. Outreach: ADA conducts an outreach and advocacy program to encourage the universal establishment of adaptive design services and education in schools, universities, hospitals, and social service agencies.

Balance Sheet: Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2008
Note: The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot long survive, but the types of assets and liabilities also must be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
