摘要
Greater levels of self-determination (SD) can positively impact the retention and college completion of students with disabilities (SWD). However, many SWD do not disclose and instead are likely accessing traditional campus supports. Disability/accessibility services professionals play an important role in helping all professionals working with college SWD to be knowledgeable of SD and its related components. This manuscript presents an overview of SD, and summarizes key research that highlights its importance for SWD. Next, an easily implementable tool called APP is provided that guides practitioners through a review of Activities, Programs, and Policies (APP) on their campus. Reflections regarding how institutional APP can be designed to reflect and promote SD skills in all students, including SWD, are presented.
