FCAI Partner TACT in Dedicated Episode of Mike Rowe’s New Show “People You Should Know”

Posted by Jessica Stasik on Tuesday, May 27, 2025 in Business and Management, Inventors and Entrepreneurs, Partner News, research and development, Self-Advocates and Civil Stakeholders.

We are so excited to share that TACT, one of our partner organizations, is featured in a dedicated episode of Mike Rowe’s new show, “People You Should Know.”

Watching this episode will give you a tour around TACT’s new 19,000 sqft facility, introduce you to some of the many awesome students that TACT train, and ends with a big surprise for the team.

TACT stands for Teaching the Autism Community Trades and works to give small classes of autistic students hands-on training in trades. This provides students with gainful employment, helps close the skills gap, and reinvigorates the trades. Some of their classes include carpentry and welding, and they even have a new culinary arts program!

You can watch the episode in full here, or below, and check out TACT’s website.

Congratulations to Danny, Becky, and all of the TACT team for the fantastic work you do!
