College for Students with Disabilities : We Do Belong, Paperback / softback Book

College for Students with Disabilities : We Do Belong Paperback / softback

Edited by Pavan John Antony, Stephen M. Shore

Paperback / softback

Description

Sharing the personal stories of individuals with disabilities who describe both the challenges and successes of their time in higher education, and with a major section on the findings of broad ranging research into the experiences of such students, the book explores the current situation, what works, and how things can be improved. "You are not college material" or "you don't belong in college" are comments frequently heard by students with disabilities.

Despite this, college education is now an expected part of the transition to adulthood for many individuals with disabilities.

The book includes practical advice to encourage self-advocacy in students with disabilities, and to support the professionals who are facing the challenges alongside them. Covering cerebral palsy, autism spectrum disorders, intellectual disabilities, and much more, this is vital reading for parents, individuals with disabilities, school teachers, college professors, and professionals working with adults with disabilities.
