Inclusive Post-Secondary Education:
Information and Tools for Being an Inclusion Facilitator.
Many thanks to Arden Duncan Bonokoski and Jen Reiher, STEPS Forward inclusion facilitators, who put in many hours to create this reference handbook for new and current staff. Their passion for ensuring that people with intellectual and developmental disabilities live broader lives, full of the same opportunities afforded the rest of us, pervades the content of this document.

The vision of Inclusive Post Secondary Education would not have been possible without the inspiration, the profound understanding of the historical context of the lives of people with developmental disabilities, the dedication to families, and the mentoring of E. Anne Hughson, Director/Associate Professor Community Rehabilitation and Disability Studies Program, University of Calgary and Bruce Uditsky, CEO Inclusion Alberta.
The purpose of this guide is to provide information for:
  • New staff:
    • New staff to:
      • provide an historical perspective of developmental disability
      • begin reflecting on the nature of facilitating inclusion in community 
    • Seasoned staff to:
      • promote ongoing reflection and discussion about the tools we use in our work
      • reflect on the dynamic nature of supporting people in ways which are unique to the moment, the individual, their families and friends, and their community.
