Program Manager- Technical Assistance and Research, teacher educator, and IPSE scholar advancing access to college for students with IDD. Views expressed are my own and not reflective of my employer or funder.
??College students with intellectual disability are employed at higher rates, more likely to live independently, and are more satisfied with their social lives than their peers who do not attend college. ??Does this mean that people with intellectual disability have to go to college to have fulfilling lives and be meaningfully employed: No. ??But, does this mean that college is PROVEN to be effective in SIGNIFICANTLY changing the outcomes of adults with intellectual disability?: A resounding YES.
