Abstract
Post-secondary education for students with intellectual disabilities is a crucial step towards a better quality of life. Reading skills, among the most important skills for success in life, are a key area that needs attention. Most post-secondary education intervention programs for these students focus on enhancing overall quality of life, including increased independence, self-advocacy, and social opportunities. However, it's important for educators, policymakers, and advocates to recognize the need for a more balanced approach that also includes academic skills, particularly reading.
