Description:
|
Young adults with disabilities have much lower post school outcomes than their typically developing peers. I am conducting a training for racially minoritized parents to equip them with resources to plan for their child’s future. Everyone deserves to have meaningful adulthood opportunities. My goal is to ensure that these parents are prepared with the knowledge and advocacy skills to successfully plan for their child’s future after high school. You will be supporting with collecting and analyzing the data related to the training, which includes both qualitative and quantitative methods. This includes survey data from the training, participant interviews, measurement of fidelity, and other logistics related the training |
