A panel of people from the Human Development Center (Louisiana UCEDD) will be the Opening General Session at the 2024 TASH Conference. They will offer an overview of recent improvements in access to childcare and improved K-12 educational achievement in Louisiana, and what can be done to ensure that the supports and needs of Louisiana students with disabilities and families experience similar achievement gains and enhanced post-high school outcomes. Two of the four presenters (Mr. Johnson and Ms. Carmouche) are graduates of the Human Development Center's transition from high school to employment and careers program and will discuss how having Competitive Integrated Employment (CIE) has impacted their life and life course trajectory.
