Feeling safe should be the norm. For everyone.
At IMPACT:Ability, we don’t just teach self-defense — we help people with intellectual and developmental disabilities feel safe, seen, and strong in their everyday lives.
Whether someone’s been hurt before, or just wants to stop being scared at school, work, or home, our trainings make a real difference — often after just one session.
👣 We use movement, voice, storytelling, and scenario practice to teach real-life skills like:
Saying no — and meaning it
Recognizing red flags
Staying calm during a freeze response
Asking for help and being believed
Our instructors are trauma-informed, trained in disability support, and deeply committed to every person’s right to bodily autonomy and emotional dignity.
Safety Skills for Every Body
We believe safety is a right, not a privilege.
IMPACT:Ability helps people with intellectual and developmental disabilities build the confidence to speak up, stay safe, and set boundaries — at home, at school, at work, and in the community. Our nationally recognized training makes it easier to spot unsafe situations, navigate relationships, and ask for help when something feels off.
Because everyone deserves to feel strong in their body. And no one should be left out of the conversation about safety.
If you know someone who deserves this kind of safety, don’t wait:
