Free Transition Guide for Students with Paralysis:
This transition guide, was written by Annie Tulkin, CEO, Accessible for the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation: Navigating and Transitioning to College with Paralysis. It’s a great starting point for thinking through the needs of any students with a physical disability or mobility impairment as they consider post-secondary education.
