Think Beach Program
Help Empower Young Adults through CSULB's Think Beach Program!
Think Beach is a life-changing, inclusive program at California State University, Long Beach that opens doors for young adults (ages 18–26) with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). The program focuses on independent living skill workshops, vocational training, and meaningful peer connections, helping students build the confidence and skills needed to thrive in adulthood.
Your gift helps Think Beach students fully participate in campus life, attending classes, joining clubs, accessing the Student Recreation and Wellness Center, and experiencing the wonderful college community The Beach has to offer. With a holistic, person-centered approach, Think Beach empowers students to follow their passions and work toward meaningful employment and independence.
Your generosity changes lives, builds community, and creates opportunity. Together, we can make college dreams possible for every learner.
