Fully accessible accommodations for adults with disabilities are the key focus within the Shasta, Tehama, and Trinity regions within the California Adult Education Program (CAEP). The north state has several government and non-profit agencies that serve adults with disabilities and are working to create seamless transitions for adults with disabilities to decrease barriers and provide educational and employment pathways.
