Description:

The Association for the Development of the Exceptional (ADE), a private, non-profit agency has served Miami-Dade County's developmentally disabled population for more than 40 years.

From our inception, our goal has been to provide a safe, caring and stimulating environment for exceptional adults. Offers adult day training, culinary art training, and supported employment.

We currently have a special culinary grant for this location, which affords 13 slots every six months for cooking skills in a professional kitchen setting. We have two cycles of 6 months. 1st one starts on July 1st and ends December. Second cycle runs from January thru June. We are currently enrolling participants for the upcoming January cycle.
