About Us

The Adapt to Impact team is a part of the Center for Inclusive Design and Engineering (CIDE) at the University of Colorado Denver. Since the fall of 2024, we have been providing support to Colorado’s childcare providers to better include children with disabilities in their programs through this project. Adapt to Impact builds off of the success of two previously funded CIDE projects: Inclusion & Universal Design Project and Project Include. Funding for Adapt to Impact is provided by collaborators including Early Intervention Colorado and Colorado Department of Education.


To learn more about CIDE and the clinic services and community programs available to support people of all ages using Assistive Technology, visit the CIDE website.

We're here to help your program succeed!

Participants who have quick questions, would like more information, or need brief consultation, may contact us at AdaptCIDE@ucdenver.edu or (303) 315-1287 at any time.
