Happy Holidays

Please have a safe and happy holiday season.  Project TRIAD staff are looking forward to 2010 as lots of opportunities for youth and young adults with disabilities are being planned.  Look for the January Youth Notes as the focus will be on financial aid, scholarships and other valuable information for those students interested in or already in college.    

Training, Resources and Information for the Advancement of Degrees (TRIAD) is a project of the Institute for Disability Studies (IDS) at The University of Southern Mississippi, Mississippi’s University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities, funded by the Administration on Developmental Disabilities (GR# 90DN0228).  TRIAD focuses on assisting youth with disabilities transitioning from school to adult life in accessing postsecondary training opportunities.  For more information, call 1.888.671.0051 or visit IDS on the Web at www.usm.edu/ids.
