For individuals with disabilities, access to a higher education does not end because of your disability.

With the passage of Title II of the ADA - Americans with Disabilities Act - clear mandates are laid on requiring publicly-funded state and local universities, colleges, and vocational schools to be accessible to persons with disabilities. Title III covers the requirements for privately-funded higher education institutions.

Let’s take a closer look as to exactly how these institutions are to attain and maintain ADA-compliance.

As (AI) continues to develop and evolve, it is essential to find ways to use this technology in a way that uplift, enables, and advances accessibility, inclusion, and human dignity.

Back in 2023, we published an article to explore the intersection between AI and human dignity. This conversation is still relevant today!

Today, we ask: In what are ways can AI be used to enhance independence or dignity for someone with a disability? Share your perspective in the comments 💬

History

Kensington Community Corporation for Individual Dignity was conceptualized by several Philadelphia Families from the Kensington area of the city, some of whom had family members who were developmentally disabled. At the time of its founding, the era of court ordered de-institutionalization for the mentally ill into boarding homes and other unsupported environments was just beginning. Recognizing a need for services, these concerned Kensington residents worked diligently to form a non-profit corporation that would provide the quality lifestyle their loved ones deserved.

The charter for the Agency was signed in 1974, with its first Community Living Arrangement (CLA) opening in 1977. At the time of its opening, KenCCID welcomed three individuals from families and three from the infamous Pennhurst state institution (see video). The agency designed its support under the principles of Normalization and later enhanced their services with Person Centered Planning using Personal Outcome Measures.

Since then, KenCCID has worked diligently to provide people with developmental and intellectual disabilities the skills necessary to achieve the outcomes they want in their lives. The people we support are encouraged to provide for their own self-care, become responsible citizens and live a quality life as independently as possible.
