Description

Since 2010, the Carolina Institute for Developmental Disabilities (NC LEND) has offered a LEND Self-Advocate Trainee Opportunity for individuals with I/DD. The Self-Advocate (SA) trainee engages in the same program of training as trainees from other disciplines, with specific support and accommodations. The current study presents results of an internal evaluation, which was conducted to determine the success of this opportunity and its impact on two cohorts of LEND trainees.
