摘要 | Key Findings:
It is widely recognized that the 12 percent of all youth in the United States who have disabilities comprise a set of students with distinct capacities and needs. Federal legislation, including the most recent updates to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) in 2004, identifies different disability groups and mandates that students in each of them have access to a free and appropriate public education. Concern about the challenges youth with different disabilities face and interest in understanding differences in their experiences has persisted for decades. The National Longitudinal Transition Study (NLTS) 2012 provides updated information on youth with disabilities. The study offers a current picture of the backgrounds of secondary school youth and their functional abilities, activities in school and with friends, academic supports received from schools and parents, and preparation for life after high school. This volume, the second from NLTS 2012, describes the characteristics of youth in 12 disability groups and how these groups of youth are faring relative to one another. The findings highlight the diversity of needs and challenges faced by youth in special education. |
