Creating and expanding opportunity are hallmarks of higher education. Postsecondary education programs for young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities bring life to university students, programs, and missions. Higher education personnel interested in starting or expanding programs like our Integrative Community Studies program are given a lifeline with the information and guidance in this book. Its contents continue to inform us and I believe the various chapters will allow you to craft your own unique and life-giving program.
