This interactive workshop will address practical and promising approaches for developing supports and fostering relationships among students with and without significant disabilities both in the classroom and throughout the broader life of their schools. High schools can provide rich social and communication experiences. Ensuring that students with cognitive disabilities, autism and other developmental disabilities benefit from these opportunities is an important challenge.
This learning opportunity includes similar outcomes to when Dr. Carter presented in May of 2013. Dr. Carter will share updates, new examples, activities and understanding around peer support.
