Inclusion

Inclusion of people with disabilities and special health care needs is part of a larger picture than simple placement in jobs or classrooms with non-disabled peers. It is being included in all aspects of life and participating using one’s abilities in daily activities as a full member of their schools and communities.

Friendship Toolkit

A new resource from PEAL for families, educators, and service providers, as well as peers, siblings, and communities.

However, there are six key elements that appear repeatedly in research related to friendship and children with disabilities. To learn more about each element and what you can do to facilitate friendship development check out the entire toolkit and tip sheets.
