Inclusive Scholarhsip Program
Program Overview
What: Our scholarship program provides financial assistance to people with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) who want to pursue college courses and/or career training.
Three Graces partners with adults with IDD across Texas to create opportunities for them to attend college courses, career training programs, and summer programs to encourage sociability and career development.
Who: The program is open to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities residing in Texas.
Program Process
Custom Plan: Scholarship participants will meet with Three Graces to develop a personalized plan for their college or career training program.
Quarterly Check-ins: Three Graces will meet with each participant on a quarterly basis to discuss their progress and identify any additional resources the program can provide. These meetings will be scheduled once the participant has chosen their college or program.
When: Meetings are held quarterly throughout the school year, both virtually and in person.
The Need for Inclusive Education
Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) face significant barriers to higher education and employment. Many lack access to the necessary financial resources, support services, and opportunities to develop the skills required for successful integration into the workforce.
