About the Book

This essential guide offers a practical framework for developing a successful Post-Secondary Education (PSE) program for students with intellectual disabilities—one of the fastest-growing areas in higher education. Written by leaders of one of the nation's top PSE programs, this book distills their extensive experience mentoring over 90 colleges and universities into a practical, jargon-free guide. Featuring clear, actionable insights for creating a successful, tailor-made program, chapter topics include functional academics, independent living skills, and employment readiness. Written for college administrators, special education teachers, and parents, this book sheds light on how PSE programs not only enrich the college experience for students with intellectual disabilities but also equip them with the skills to thrive as self-sufficient adults.

Review :
Creating and expanding opportunity are hallmarks of higher education. Postsecondary education programs for young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities bring life to university students, programs, and missions. Higher education personnel interested in starting or expanding programs like our Integrative Community Studies program are given a lifeline with the information and guidance in this book. Its contents continue to inform us and I believe the various chapters will allow you to craft your own unique and life-giving program. Dr. Roland W. Mitchell, Dean College of Human Sciences & Education, Louisiana State University We have seen the tremendous value of inclusive education programmes in our own university with the Trinity Centre for People with Intellectual Disabilities. The contributions in this volume highlight the importance of underpinning such initiatives with rigorous academic research, while also ensuring that the voices of people with intellectual disabilities are kept to the fore. Dr Linda Doyle, Provost & President, Trinity College Dublin, University of Dublin.
