The Perkins Educational Partnership
Program brings together expert educators with parents, early intervention providers, school based personnel, and other agencies to provide specialized services to children who are blind, deafblind, or visually impaired with or without multiple disabilities. Together, we can enable these children with visual impairments or deafblindness to reach their greatest potential.

"Strengthening Quality in Schools", supported by WAC, is working to establish a climate for continuous improvement using the Baldrige Criteria and Quality Principles. Professional development days are provided to systematically improve student achievement and system performance at all levels.
What do you want to do when you grow up? Students hear that question frequently, but few have chances to explore different careers. "School to World" provides community college students with an opportunity to discuss over a hundred careers with people who actually are doing them. WAC in partnership with member organizations, schools, corporations and governments, work together to support and sponsor various projects each year.
