Assessing Autism: New Training Brings Specialty Care to Rural Areas
Autism specialists from ICI’s TeleOutreach Center share their expertise with primary care medical professionals and other professionals serving rural and military-connected families. One of the training modules goes beyond diagnosing autism to discuss factors that can improve an assessment and tailor it to each child's unique needs.

Boldly Challenging Ableism: New Episodes
Boldly Challenging Ableism, the ICI podcast/AM950 Radio broadcast, is back with fresh new episodes. Host Katrina Simons uses her lifelong disability and her advocacy experiences at ICI to boldly and irreverently go where everyone has gone before—to issues like employment, housing, justice, education, and culture.
Exposing ableism. Dismantling myths that marginalize people with disabilities. Reminiscing about decades of advocacy. Untangling the red tape of accessible living. Simons always brings humor and an approachable style that make you think anew about what community inclusion really means.
Schleien Scholarship
Administered by ICI, the Schleien Scholarship offers up to $3,000 to qualified students who actively promote the community inclusion of individuals with disabilities, disadvantaged youth, and other underserved populations. These activities could take place in the spring, summer, or fall.
Applicants must be enrolled full-time at the University of Minnesota's College of Education and Human Development.
