THINK COLLEGE KANSAS! In an inclusive post-secondary education [PSE] students with ID/D participate in academic classes and social activities on college campuses with students without disabilities and receive individualized supports and accommodations. it is the goal of this administration to ensure that every child has access to a complete and competitive education from the day they are born to the day they begin a career this country needs and values the talents of every American.?%+-'&+(*"GS)0);"N&&%+--"*$"*/+"@$'(*"T+--'$("$9"#$(1%+--K"2+S%5)%>"PQQU Think College Kansas Coordinates stakeholder meetings Facilitates ongoing workgroup activities Develops a state strategic action plan Conducts statewide information-sharing The Higher Education Opportunities Act PL (HEOA) of 2008 includes provisions for students with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities [ID/D] to be eligible for federal financial aid and creates model demonstration programs for the development and expansion of high quality, inclusive postsecondary education programs. Learn to support great expectations be mindful of your changing parental roles and expect to take risks!!"#$%&'() In college, I am learning to do harder work. Professors don t baby you like they do in high Student school. You are responsible for your own work. I like that! Surprisingly, we have a program that meets both the needs of the students and the needs of the academic unit. The funds are self-generating [and] allow us to support the academic programs related to special education. Higher Ed Administrator Adapting classes to meet the needs of students with cognitive disabilities took minimal support and enriched the class experience for everyone! Professor Educational options include credit/noncredit or continuing education courses in 2 and 4-year institutions and vocational-technical schools. Transition services are key to facilitating the movement from secondary to postsecondary education and often include dual enrollment in both programs. Access to PSE can be accomplished through alternative pathways where changes or waivers to the entrance criteria are made. Students now have access to Pell Grants, Supplemental Educational Opportunity grants and Work Study to support the financial aspect of their education. Students secure official status [with school ID] and comply with the same code of conduct as all students. Students benefit from the supports offered by universal design instruction, academic accommodations, disability services, As each student develops the individual skills to succeed in college, we work to increase their reliance on existing college supports and decrease their reliance on us! Preliminary data suggest that participation in postsecondary education contributes Educational Coach to improved employment outcomes and increased wages. Kansas is responding to this postsecondary initiative through Think College Kansas, a nine-month strategic planning grant funded by the Association of University Centers on Developmental Disabilities, designed to:!"#$$%&'()*+")("'('*'),"-*).+/$,&+%"0++*'(1!"2)3','*)*+"$(1$'(1"4$%.1%$56")3*'7'*'+-!"8+7+,$6")"-*)*+"-*%)*+1'3")3*'$("6,)(!"#$(&53*")"-*)*+4'&+"'(9$%0)*'$(:-/)%'(1"+7+(* KANSAS 2$%"0$%+"'(9$%0)*'$("3$(*)3*;"" 8%<"=+(&>"?)%+(*:@$/(-$("A46)%+(*B.5<+&5C 8%<"D'3/)%&"?)%+(*:@$/(-$(""A&%EB.5<+&5C 8%<"F)*/>"G,-$("A.$,-$(B.5<+&5C * Sources for the information included above are: HI06)3*J"A=+'%K"2)',.)K"L'00$(-")(&"M$%&K" N5*50(O='(*+%"PQRQOPQRRC")(&"*/+"L/'(." #$,,+1+"=+S-'*+"A/**6;OO*/'(.3$,,+1+<(+*C Developed by: Drs.
