Welcome
to IAL - the educational program which has been nominated 3 consecutive years for
Excellence in Leadership by
the
Heart of Marin Awards!
IAL is also the
proud 4 year recipient of the
FAITH Partneship Grant
of The Marin Community Foundation
for
our groundbreaking Teacher Aide Career Training program.
What makes IAL
unique?
The students in our program were pulled out of academic classes
by 3rd grade due to learning delays; as adults, these same students recognize the academic void, desire wholeheartedly to
fill it, and are proving their achievement through 8th grade proficiency testing!
Can they do it?
Yes!
Then why isn't this
program instituted elsewhere?
Good question!
It's our mission to open successful educational
doors through public education, private education, special education, and private tutoring everywhere!
But, there's
big (seriously big) money in convincing those without education that they are uneducable and must depend on public support
for a lifetime.
It's David vs. Goliath.
Just remember...David won!
And. if
you think for a minute that a small, grassroots company can't change the state of education in our world, we're here
to tell you that WE ALREADY DO!
So, do you want to help us make real education special?

"The Institute of Abundant Living continues to bring education,
independence and opportunity to people living with developmental challenges. It was an honor for me to support their
program and play in a wonderful tournament that helped raise money for such inspirational individuals." California Democratic Assemblyman, Jared Huffman
