CKA SAVE PROJECT
A Message from the Dr. Keith Adams
Greetings and Salutations,
My name is Dr. Keith Adams and I am the President of the CKA SAVE Project. On behalf of our Board of Directors I want to thank you for visiting our website, we are happy you are here and hope you enjoy our time together.
Our organizational vision is to use the combination of academics and athletics as a catalyst to lifelong success. Our mission is to assist student-athletes and the people who work with them through educational and professional development. Our primary student focus is to help them improve their time management and organizational skills, along with their individual and collective ability to self-advocate in terms of their individual and collective needs. Our primary educational focus is to implement our organizational concept of teaching with an “Athletic Mindset” which focuses on high levels of communication, collaboration, and accountability from everyone involved in a student-athletes life.
Since 2009, we have provided student-athletes and educators from across the country the opportunity to come together and interact through the mediums of both academics and athletics. However, we know that none of our endeavors are possible without the support of people like you. Through your donations we have been able to continue our work and will be able to do so for years to come. Please consider donating to our organization, so that we can continue to support student-athletes.
In closing, I again want to thank you for visiting our website, please follow me on twitter @ckasaveproject. Thank you.

“Dr. Adams was the content expert that I needed during my dissertation journey. He answered questions and provided directives while writing. He also provided personal anecdotes and suggestions during the times I struggled. He provides a professional and academic atmosphere that made me feel comfortable to ask for help. I would highly recommend doctoral students to work with him.”
Dr. Sarah Cox

“Dr. Keith Adams was an integral member of my dissertation committee. Dr. Adams’ expertise in the inner workings of collegiate student athletes, but also his depth of knowledge associated with the NCAA made him the perfect content expert for my research on NCAA Division III student athletes. Given the unique culture of collegiate student athletes, it was critical to have a committee member who understood the various dynamics that impact student athletes. Dr. Adams not only contributed his extensive knowledge on this subject matter, but also his support in the overall dissertation process. I am both happy and grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Dr. Adams as he has helped me to become the researcher I am today.”
