Recruiting Florida School District Teams for Year 2

More details here. http://flfcic.fmhi.usf.edu/docs/CODIE/CODIE_flyer.pdf

The Florida

Developmental Disabilities Council has awarded a grant to the Florida Center

for Inclusive Communities for the implementation of the Collaborative on

Discovery and Innovation in Employment (CODIE). The purpose of CODIE is

to build the capacity of school district implementation teams so they may

become proficient in facilitating the Discovery process and integrating

Discovery into their transition processes. Discovery is a person-centered process

where information is gathered about a student’s interests, strengths, support

needs, and skills in environments and activities where they are at their best,

thus resulting in a Discovery vocational summary and synopsis as well as a

visual resume that focus on achieving customized opportunities and

employment outcomes.

To Apply

If you know

a school district who is interested in becoming an implementation team, they

must complete and submit the CODIE application no later than October 17, 2012.

Applications are available and more information is available for download at: http://flfcic.fmhi.usf.edu/program-areas/employment.html?tab=1
