Institute for Disability Research, Policy & Practice

For the past several months, the Institute for Disability Research, Policy and Practice has been interviewing families about the impact early intervention has on the lives of Utahns.

Starting this fall, the program will help education agencies across the nation improve the accessibility of school materials like textbooks, lectures, and websites.

Life changing services help families navigate the needs of children with disabilities.

Matthew Wappett is executive director of the Utah State University Institute for Disability, Research, Policy, and Practice. Grandin and Wappett discuss the institute's accomplishments and ongoing efforts to create a more inclusive society and education system.

Last week, the Institute for Disability Research, Policy & Practice kicked off its 50th anniversary celebration with fine art. The Institute featured two artists in Logan’s Gallery Walk, offering a glimpse into different styles, cultures and ways of thinking about color, light and air.
