The Southeast ADA Center Will Broadcast the “ADA Live!” Show: Episode 29: Supported and Inclusive Education for Students with Intellectual Disabilities

Wednesday – February 3, 2016
1:00 PM – 1:30 PM (Eastern)

Many young adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) are leaving high school and considering post-secondary education programs. Until recently, there were not many opportunities for students with ID to have access to post-secondary education. What began through the efforts of a few individuals and institutes of higher education has developed into a movement of many who share the belief that all students should have access to post-secondary education opportunities that lead to employment and independent living opportunities.
