Description

This study examines national school-based extracurricular programs that promote inclusion of middle and high school students with developmental disabilities in their school communities. A systematic literature search of the programs was conducted using established search engines. Studies about school-based programs and their effectiveness in integrating students with disabilities were reviewed. Findings are relevant to schools seeking to maximize inclusion of students with disabilities and potentially improve students outcomes.
