Project Description:
This study is one of five studies that are a part of the NIDDLR funded RRTC on VR and Youth. This project will use mixed methods to look at the role and impact of vocational rehabilitation in inclusive higher education for youth with intellectual disability and autism including(1) an analysis of secondary data on inclusive higher education model demonstration programs from the Think College National Coordinating Center (NCC) Data Network, and (2) intensive case studies of three to five IHEs that have established effective partnerships with VR. Results of this study will inform the development of effective VR intervention and practices to support postsecondary education and employment outcomes for youth with ID and autism.
