Postsecondary support for students with disabilities

This resource provides students with the information needed to feel confident in their choice of postsecondary and continued education. The guide raises awareness about some of the disparities students with disabilities experience in postsecondary school and their careers, and discusses some of the benefits of vocational training, choosing the right program that best suits the students' goals and needs, and how to pay for school. Scholarship awards included in this list are specifically set for students with disabilities. All of them cover vocational and trade school, and many of them extend to any tuition-based education program. I've made sure that the scholarships in this list renew each year, and I will be refreshing the list twice each year to make sure that new scholarships are included.
