Empowering Diverse Families and Enhancing Advocacy During the IEP Process
Friday December 6, 2024 10:00am - 11:00am CST
3RD Floor - Ballroom: Celestin H
Our research centers on historically marginalized families and their experiences during the IEP process, emphasizing the need for opportunities for advocacy and participation. School-based teams need to approach collaboration with families from an asset-based approach (Sauer & Rossetti, 2020) and educators can learn from practices associated with cultural humility to inform their relationships with diverse families (Trainor, 2010). We conducted semi-structured interviews with families and caregivers to gather first-hand accounts of their experience with decision-making and advocacy during IEP development. In particular, we asked participants how they were able to provide input on placements and services for their child. We will present our findings from a qualitative analysis and share the online resources that we developed to empower families by increasing their understanding of special education terminology, their rights under IDEA, and their confidence in advocating for their child.

Celebrate Together: Empowering Transitions with Student-Led IEPs!
Friday December 6, 2024 2:15pm - 3:10pm CST
3RD Floor - Ballroom: Celestin B
In this presentation, we advocate for student-led Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) for transition-age adults with intellectual disabilities (ages 18-21). Transitioning from school to adulthood is critical, and empowering these individuals to participate in their IEPs is essential. Research highlights the importance of self-determination, self-advocacy, and engagement for better outcomes in education, employment, and independent living. Our approach includes providing direct instruction for self-advocacy skills, fostering collaboration between students, families, educators, and community agencies, and enhancing communication to improve participation. The presentation includes a student from a post-secondary transition program who adopted a person-centered IEP approach.

Comparing Literacy Programs for Non-speaking Students with Extensive Support Needs
Friday December 6, 2024 2:15pm - 3:10pm CST
2ND Floor - Foster 2
In this pilot randomized controlled trial, we tested two reading curricula designed to teach early literacy skills to nonspeaking students—Early Literacy Skills Builder and Accessible Literacy Learning. Twenty-four participants were randomized to an ELSB, ALL, or control group, and we measured outcomes for all groups at 4 time points for phonological awareness, alphabet knowledge, and word reading. We used growth curve modeling to analyze our data. We found statistically significant effects for both ELSB and ALL compared to the control group on some outcomes, although ELSB outperformed ALL on most measures. We will report on effects of each intervention relative to each other and a control group, and share practical implications for practitioners.

Empowering Voices: Participation of Youth Using AAC in Transition Planning
Friday December 6, 2024 2:15pm - 3:10pm CST
4TH Floor - Imperial 5C
Person-centered transition planning empowers people with disabilities to take charge of their goals for the future— fostering self-determination and meaningful outcomes. However, little is known about the extent to which educators involve youth in transition planning when youth are unable to use speech to be heard and understood. Our research team has been engaging in research focused on understanding the involvement of youth who use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) in transition planning. We interviewed youth who use AAC, their parents, their special education teachers, and their speech-language pathologists about their experiences. Key findings highlight the challenges youth face and the support needed from each stakeholder in the transition planning process. Participants will gain powerful insight into these first-hand experiences and will also leave with ideas about the changes needed in practice to empower youth voices in their own transition planning.

Inclusive Education Partnerships: Collaborating to Create Curriculum Access
Friday December 6, 2024 3:25pm - 4:20pm CST
3RD Floor - Ballroom: Celestin C
This presentation will explore the development and implementation of a partnership between UNLV’s Office of General Curriculum Access (OGCA) and the Nevada Department of Education’s Office of Inclusive Education (OIE). The collaboration aims to promote inclusive education by providing access to the general curriculum and a continuum of needed supports and services for students with extensive support needs. The OIE works to raise expectations and improve educational and employment outcomes for all students with disabilities through collaborative efforts with state and local partners. Through a partnership with the OIE, the OGCA provides educators with grade-aligned and standards-based curriculum materials, academic and behavioral support resources, and effective professional development. This session will share the challenges, strategies, and successes of the partnership and will provide attendees with actionable insights into creating similar collaborations in their own contexts.

Community Conversations: A Tool For Campus Collaboration, Inclusion and Action
Friday December 6, 2024 4:35pm - 5:30pm CST
4TH Floor - Imperial 11
One complexity of inclusive postsecondary education (IPSE) programming is fostering campus-wide collaboration to enhance inclusion. In response to this, the Office of Inclusive Postsecondary Education (OIPE) at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, has adapted and employed the World Cafe Model as a formidable tool to facilitate community conversations. The World Cafe Model brings together stakeholders to explore a current barrier, elicit solutions, and potential action steps. During this presentation, OIPE will describe how they facilitate these community conversations, ensure inclusive representation, and share outcomes of key community conversations around employment, academic engagement, and inclusive practices in Title IX and Conduct processes on campus.

Strategies for Opening the Glass Door To Employment Through Employer Engagement
Friday December 6, 2024 4:35pm - 5:30pm CST
2ND Floor - Foster 2
Too often, qualified workers with disabilities struggle to find work because the organizations that support them focus primarily on them.  We must focus equally on preparing employers to successfully source, onboard, and retain employees with disabilities. Join the Administration on Disabilities (AoD) Disability Employment Technical Assistance Center (DETAC)  and Jonathan "Jon" Taylor, Executive Director of the Arkansas Governor's Council on Developmental Disabilities, to discuss employer engagement and outreach to advance competitive integrated employment (CIE) for people with disabilities. Jon Taylor was previously a retail field manager with a decade of successful experience in CIE. In this session, Jon will recount his experiences and offer practical tips for how DD Councils, job developers, self-advocates, and other stakeholders can engage with employers to advance CIE and economic outcomes for people with disabilities. The session will review the philosophy of Employment First, emphasize the importance of partnerships, and share DETAC resources.

Celebrating Authentic Experiences That Enhance Appreciation of Diversity
Friday December 6, 2024 5:45pm - 7:15pm CST
3RD Floor - Storyville Hall
This session presents information on a pilot program for undergraduates enrolled in a teacher education program. Teaching candidates have the opportunity to participate with faculty mentors and peers in a very engaging format. This project is designed to supplement learning and broaden one’s perspective of teaching students who have disabilities and to enhance one’s understanding and appreciation for different cultures, attitudes, beliefs, and perspectives. It is a culmination of what teacher candidates learned in terms of accessibility and inclusion as well as reflecting upon the themes of cultural humility and knowledge. A major part of cultural humility is understanding and analyzing your own reactions in a thoughtful and intentional way, which includes being tolerant, respectful, curious, and empathetic towards other cultures. Thus, teacher candidates self-reflect upon a series of related experiences by examining all aspects of events and experiences from different perspectives.

Inclusion Opportunities at Secondary Schools: Stakeholder Perspectives
Friday December 6, 2024 5:45pm - 7:15pm CST
3RD Floor - Storyville Hall
Students with IDD are not typically included in school engagement for both academic and social activities. Though laws seek to encourage inclusive education for all students, at the Secondary School level, inclusion is lacking due to academic expectations in the classroom, social opportunities, buy in from both staff and fellow students, and because of typical expectations and norms in a public high school.  In order to remedy this problem, we propose that school stakeholders work together in order to create inclusion opportunities for all students.  This presentation discusses inclusion successes and perspectives held by a variety of stakeholders: teachers, related service providers, students with and without disabilities, parents, and school administrators. A call to action is offered for all stakeholders to find innovative, intentional, and joyful opportunities for true engagement for all students.

Survey of Interagency Collaboration in Illinois: A Preliminary Study
Friday December 6, 2024 5:45pm - 7:15pm CST
3RD Floor - Storyville Hall
The proposed presentation will discuss the results of a study on interagency collaboration in Illinois. Linkages and relationships among disability providers are the main focus of the study. The study will utilize collaboration mapping highlighted in Frey et al., 2006. The visual representation of collaboration will be a useful aid to see how many linkages exist between disability providers and the strength of those linkages among the disability providers. The baseline data in the study collected will be utilized to determine how effective interventions are at improving collaboration among disability providers. The primary focus will be disability providers that provide employment-related services, including schools that provide employment-focused training.

The Black Box of Collaboration: Preliminary Qualitative Results
Friday December 6, 2024 5:45pm - 7:15pm CST
3RD Floor - Storyville Hall
Policy requirements and incentives emphasize interagency collaboration (IDEA, 2004; WIOA, 2014). Despite evidence of interagency collaboration improving postsecondary outcomes for students with disabilities, there are noted challenges in collaboration (Saleh et al., 2019). Difficulties exist despite the prevalence of conceptual interagency collaboration models (Kwiatek et al., 2023). Reconceptualizing research on interagency collaboration to emphasize collaboration theory will provide new insights into the process of interagency collaboration that may better address barriers to interagency collaboration (Thomson & Perry, 2006; Wood & Gray,1991). An exploratory qualitative study was conducted using collaboration theory. Vocational rehabilitation counselors in Central Illinois were asked to describe the process of collaboration in the provision of school-to-work employment-focused transition services. The results of the exploratory study are discussed.
