Why This Event Matters

TACT's Impact

Fedcap's TACT has transformed lives across Colorado by preparing neurodivergent individuals for meaningful careers in technology, culinary arts, digital skills, and other high-demand industries. Over the past decade, TACT has served nearly 6,000 neurodivergent students and achieved an 83% job placement rate.

Growing Opportunity

This summer, TACT launched its first-ever culinary program in New York City at Civic Hall. Building on that momentum, TACT is now expanding its programming to equip more neurodivergent New Yorkers with the skills, training, and support needed to thrive in today's workforce.

Honoring Legacy

To support that vision, join us as we celebrate the 60th anniversary of Star Trek and honor the legacy of Leonard Nimoy, an artist, humanitarian, and champion for a world where every individual is recognized for their unique gifts. In partnership with The Nimoy Foundation, this special evening advances TACT’s mission to unlock the potential of neurodivergent New Yorkers.

Building What's Next

Together with business leaders, employers, and philanthropic partners, we’ll celebrate an extraordinary, often overlooked workforce while raising support to launch TACT’s digital skills programs at Civic Hall. By expanding access to education, careers, and economic mobility, we’re helping create a future where every talent is recognized and every person has the opportunity to thrive.
