Recenzii

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.
