College Student Journal, v46 n4 p856-866 Dec 2012
The wraparound planning process developed for a young adult with significant physical and developmental disabilities described in this article validates the importance of collaboration between service providers, academic advisors, faculty, and staff in institutions of higher education to support students with disabilities to successfully complete their postsecondary education goals. This case study provides guidance for staff, faculty, and adult disability service providers as they plan for how to best support students with disabilities who have multiple needs that must be addressed in a meaningful way for them to be successful in higher education.
