What is Inclusive Postsecondary Education?

Often called IPSE for short, inclusive postsecondary education programs enable young adults with intellectual disabilities to attend college. 

IPSE programs empower individuals with intellectual disabilities by providing them with the tools, resources, and confidence needed to pursue and achieve their personal and professional goals.

Through academic and vocational training, these programs aim to enhance the skills and competencies of individuals with disabilities, preparing them for meaningful employment and independent living.
