Volunteers make it happen.
At ICAN, that’s not just a saying — it’s the truth.
From hosting clubs to helping at events, social outings, or camp, our volunteers create fun, inclusive experiences that empower adults with disabilities. Whether they’re decorating our sites for the holidays or showing up as camp counselors, ICAN volunteers bring the energy, heart, and creativity that make everything possible.
No experience? No problem.
No matter where your skill sets lie — there’s a way for you to support ICAN through volunteering. Whether you’re outgoing, organized, artistic, detail-oriented, or just have a heart to help, there’s a place for you here.

🎧🕺 Our friends from Social Program have been practicing their best dance moves to get ready for the ultimate Silent Disco—and let’s just say… the vibes are immaculate.
Huge shoutout to @silentevents for partnering with us to make this dance party extra epic! We can’t wait to throw on the headphones and light up the dance floor together. 💃🔥

What started as a casual snap of our friend Pam next to a fire hydrant quickly turned into a full-on photoshoot 🤩📸 Maybe it was the cookie sugar rush… but honestly, this is what we love about ICAN. Our clients and coaches have the freedom to create and capture joyful moments wherever we go—whether we’re exploring somewhere magical or just hyping up a cool fire hydrant in Downtown Fullerton.

What started as a simple nature hike turned into a full-blown movie adventure 🎬🍃
Our Hiking Club explored Bronson Canyon, a spot that’s been featured in over 50 films—including the original Batman series! From scenic views to cinematic history, this LA hike had it all.

Wanted to give a special shoutout to Riley who has shown incredible leadership in Cooking Club, offering guidance to peers and stepping in to help before the coach. His patience and initiative make him a true role model! Keep up the great work Riley!

✨ Last Friday was a magical afternoon we won’t forget! Clients from all three ICAN sites came together for an early preview of @ambassadorchristian_ ’s performance of Cinderella—and it was amazing! 👏 Though the show has wrapped, their theater department continues to impress year after year. We don’t know what’s next, but if it’s anything like Cinderella, you won’t want to miss it.
Bravo, Ambassador Christian School! 🎭💫

Today is World Down Syndrome Day 💛💙—a global celebration of inclusion, awareness, and the unique contributions of individuals with Down syndrome.
We’re giving a special shoutout to @raisingcanes , who proudly celebrates Larry, our ICAN client and a valued, cherished member of their team. His dedication, positivity, and hard work inspire everyone around him—and we’re so proud to see him thrive in a workplace that embraces and uplifts him.
Let’s continue to build a world where every individual is seen, supported, and celebrated—today and every day.
