This is a collection of short papers on different ways to achieve inclusion in several aspects of life. Project WRAP involves wrapping supports and normalised services around students and families e.g. a buddy program. Another short article argues for inclusion to happen at the beginning of schooling in kindergarten. Another article describes an inclusive summer school and the fourth article describes co-teaching i.e. the teaming up of a “regular” and special education teacher to teach an integrated group of students. There is also an article on program to facilitate inclusion at work provided.
Resourcing Inclusive Communities (RIC) is an initiative of Family Advocacy that provides information and resources to help people with disabilities live meaningful lives as valued community members. Inclusive communities thrive on diversity and active participation from all.
