The Association on Higher Education and Disability (AHEAD) is a leading organization for disability service providers at the post-secondary level. They have recently released a report entitled “The Documentation Disconnect for Students with Learning Disabilities: Improving Access to Postsecondary Disability Services” . This report provides a non-technical summary of the differences in laws affecting students with disabilities in high school and post-secondary institutions. It also contains a valuable bibliography of resources for students, parents and service providers. One recommended site in the bibliography for high school students and their parents is the National Center for Learning Disabilities’ booklet “Transition to College: Strategic Planning to Ensure Success for Students with Learning Disabilities.” Many of the topics are relevant to all students with disabilities, not just those with learning disabilities. |
