Research Interests
Stephen's primary research goal is to prepare students with disabilities for more equitable postschool lives. To address this aim, Stephen's research encompasses three inter-related, albeit distinct, strands: (a) general education involvement in college and career readiness efforts, (b) identification and implementation of evidence-based practices and predictors of postschool success, and (c) interagency collaboration.
