Presenter
Gwen Mitchell, PhD, Interdisciplinary Training DirectorCenter on Disabilities and Human Development, UCEDD
Description
We have developed a 3-year interdisciplinary training program curriculum focused on the undergraduate population designed to demystify disability while fostering interest in leadership, advocacy, and self-reflection. Using a variety of didactic, experiential, and self-directed activities, we scaffold learning and shape students in professional development and preparedness in advancing to their graduate training for trainees/students interested in entering healthcare, education, or advocacy careers.Back to Session: Welcome Reception and Evening Poster Session
