Description
Supporting self-advocate fellows is an important part of LEND programs and can be challenging when the self-advocate participates via remote access. This presentation describes VT LEND�s experience making their distance accessible training program fully inclusive for their first self-advocate fellow who lived out of state. The Self-Advocate Fellow, Educational Coach and Training/Clinical Director will provide information on how they met this goal successfully and dealt with challenges along the way.Back to Session: Poster Symposium 12: Technology, Assistive Technology, & Universal Design
