From pre-professional to mid-career and mature dancers, our programs help dancers in every stage of their career. Our programs can be grouped into three categories: Career counseling, financial assistance, and informational resources. All programs are provided free of charge.

Providing career counseling is at the heart of the
organization's mission. We help dancers with the process of self-evaluation, guide
their discovery of practical options, and motivate them to achieve their long-term
goals. Created to provide dancers with an open-ended dialogue, career counseling
helps define dancers' interests and skills.
Career Transition For Dancers offers individual counseling and group counseling that introduces dancers to useful skills and topics. We also have outreach projects on local and national levels to engage the most dancers possible.
Our Outreach Projects have a lasting impact on dancers.
We take our career counseling services on the road to reach dancers who are unable
to travel to our New York City, Los Angeles, or Chicago offices.
Career Transition For Dancers is the only organization in the nation that provides
financial assistance specifically to help dancers transition into new careers.
The Caroline H. Newhouse Scholarship Fund provides scholarships or grants to
start academic or retraining programs, and provides start-up capital for a new
business. The Sono Osato Scholarship Program for Graduate Studies
provides scholarships for graduate degrees in fields other than dance.
