Education Leadership Initiative (ELI)

Through our Information Technology in Education Accessibility Initiative (2001-2006), we developed an Education Leadership Initiative (ELI) to support the formation of innovative partnerships (including a regional Education Leadership Team) and promote technology access across educational environments in the Southeast U.S. region.

During these initiatives, support was provided to thirteen (13) Information Technology Accessibility in Education Projects that were dedicated to removing barriers to information technology in education for students with disabilities.
