Education


The Education Resource page offers tools and support to access educational programs and services at all levels. Here, you'll find information on accommodations, special education, and resources to assist with the transition to higher education and lifelong learning. 


 


 

Accommodations


Academic accommodations are crucial for continued learning and transitioning to the workplace. Accommodations ensure access to learning environments and foster independence in adulthood. Understanding your accommodations and taking an active role in IEP meetings is crucial for long-term educational and career goals.

Postsecondary Education


Postsecondary education offers greater career opportunities, personal growth, and independence. Access to higher education equips individuals with the skills and knowledge needed for meaningful employment and self-sufficiency. It also fosters critical thinking, social engagement, and empowerment, helping you become a more active participant in your community and achieve long-term success in adult life.
