[Project: National Coordinating Center] At Think College, we really believe in sharing resources. In July, we hosted the annual Project Director meeting for federally funded Transition and Postsecondary Education Programs for Students with Intellectual Disability (TPSID). TPSID staff and community partners presented many great sessions.
The Higher Education Act, the main piece of federal legislation that affects inclusive college programs, is not being reviewed by Congress right now. So, why should you still pay attention to what Congress is up to?
This Affinity Group is designed for people who are currently involved in research in inclusive higher education or those who would like to become more involved. The October meeting will take place in-person at the State of the Art Conference. Grab your breakfast and come chat with fellow researchers! Don’t worry about arriving late – this will be an informal time for group members to connect. We will meet in the Waverly room.
[Project: National Coordinating Center] The annual TPSID Project Director meeting was held in Cleveland, Ohio on July 18 and 19 where the 2020-2025 cohort was finally able to gather in person. It was a productive and enjoyable meeting for all!

The Career and Technical Education (CTE) Affinity Group brings together those who are currently involved in inclusive postsecondary programs at CTE institutions or those who would like to become more involved in expanding CTE opportunities for students with intellectual disability. This is an open-access group for individuals who want to contribute to the expansion of CTE access for students with intellectual disability. Meetings will include facilitated discussion on opportunities and barriers to CTE for students with ID as well as guest speakers/experts from the field.

This Affinity Group is designed for people who are currently involved in research in inclusive higher education or those who would like to become more involved. The activities of the group will be relevant for those working directly in inclusive higher education as well as in related disciplines (e.g., transition, rehabilitation, disability services). We have a particular focus on supporting emerging scholars (master’s and doctoral candidates).
