Who Is Leading the Field in 2020?: AAIDD Students and Early Career Professionals
Crane, Jill M.; Williamson, Heather J.; Raley, Sheida K.; Hagiwara, Mayumi; Lee, Chung eun; Havercamp, Susan M.
Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, v59 n3 p217-223 Jun 2021
The American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (AAIDD) has been a leader in the field of intellectual and developmental disabilities since its founding in 1876. Today, student and early career professionals make up approximately 8.5% of the organization, with their engagement supported by the Student and Early Career Professional Interest Network (SECP). An article by Havercamp et al. (2003), "Who Will Lead the Field Beyond 2020?", recommended organizational changes that have been largely addressed in the years following by SECP. The present research replicates Havercamp et al.'s (2003) original survey of the organization's student and early career professionals, and results support the effectiveness of SECP as a welcoming platform from which students and early career professionals can establish themselves in the organization.
