Product Description:
The RRTC on Advancing Employment for People with Intellectual/ Developmental Disabilities, housed at the Institute for Community Inclusion at UMass Boston, convened its a State-of-the-Science initiative during the Summer and Fall of 2018. Towards that end, we hosted a variety of listening sessions, both in-person and online, with multiple stakeholders, to share findings and gather feedback on what we know, what more we need to learn, and where we are headed. Our series of events culminated in November of 2017 with our event in Washington DC. Click here for the agenda and click here for the stakeholder feedback materials from that day.
Our partners in this initiative include The Arc U.S., Self-Advocates Becoming Empowered, the University of Minnesota, and the National Association of State Directors of Developmental Disabilities Services (NASDDDS).
