AUCD and NCC are pleased to invite students and staff of postsecondary education programs for students with ID to once again apply to be Think College Policy Advocates (TCPA). Attached to this resource are the submission details, application, and letter of recommendation template for Think College Policy Advocate (TCPA) teams. If you have any questions, please contact Siddarth Nagaraj at snagaraj@aucd.org. 

TCPA provides an opportunity to teach and grow champions on Capitol Hill and advance advocacy efforts for people with disabilities. Those selected for TCPA will learn about important issues related to disability, what it means to advocate and how, and will ultimately gather in Washington, DC to work together and visit representatives to talk about inclusive higher education, healthcare, employment, and other issues. 

Learn more about what TCPA is all about and read what some 2021 Think College Policy Advocates have to say on this page.
