Welcome! TRIAD needs your input!!!

Welcome to the TRIAD4U blog.  TRIAD (Training, Resources and Information for the Advancement of Degrees) is a project of the Institute for Disability Studies at USM that focuses on youth and emerging leaders with disabilities.  TRIAD assists unserved and underserved youth with disabilities who are transitioning from school to adult life.  To learn more about TRIAD, please visit www.usm.edu/ids/triad.

TRIAD provides many services and has had several accomplishments.  These include:
  • a monthly listserv
  • a portable library and computer lab
  • training and technical assistance to over 650 youth and young adults with disabilities and over 450 persons who work with them
  • a resource CD with free software, tools, resources and information for everyone involved with transition that is now available as an online resource on the TRIAD Web site - www.usm.edu/ids/triad/software
At this time, TRIAD needs your input!  Click on "links to this post" below and post your comment.  Take time and tell what is important to you.  What is working with transition?  What is not working?  What training is needed? Etc.  PLEASE end your post by letting me know who you are - student, teacher, guidance counselor, etc.  Thanks
