Abstract

This paper seeks to identify current best practices in supporting students with disabilities at West Coast public institutions of higher education. The authors identify three exemplary models of best practice at a variety of institutions. The first examines disability identity development at the University of California, Berkeley, the second a recreational sports facility at Portland State Uni- versity, the third a clearinghouse model of adap- tive equipment for a group of Washington com- munity colleges. Using these three cases, a holistic model of best practices that supports students with disabilities is put forth for implementation at other institutions.
