SPED 2070 Disabled in America

The intent of this course is to define the disabled population in the United States and to identify their present legal rights and protections in regard to housing, financial aid, job discrimination, barrier-free environments, social settings and education. The history of the disabled is reviewed so that the student can better understand present value systems and ethical viewpoints. This is an elective for those students who have room in the program. This course is given only periodically.
