Description
The Southeast Consortium was formed in 2004 and is represented by all states in the southeastern United States that have either a Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities (LEND) and/or University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities (UCEDD) program. These programs work broadly with individuals with autism, intellectual disabilities, and other types of developmental disabilities and their families across the lifespan, typically focusing on research, training, and clinical/community services.
Mission
The mission of the Southeast Consortium is to develop and provide coordinated training initiatives to the Title V and related state agency workforce constituents in this region of the country.
Goal
To share as much of our regular training initiatives as possible with state agency constituents and trainees, and to work in conjunction with current Title V needs in the region.
