Inclusive Service Learning Manual
Service Learning is an approach to teaching and learning that
combines real and needed community service with prescribed
academic learning goals. The Magellan Foundation in
collaboration with the New York State Education Department Learn
and Serve America Program, with funding from the Developmental
Disabilities Planning Council and the Corporation for National
and Community Service, worked with numerous school districts in
recent years to assist schools with including children with
disabilities in service learning programs. As a result of this
inclusive service learning project a manual was developed to
provide instruct and technical assistance to other districts who
are interested in students with and without disabilities working
side-by-side on service learning activities. If you are
interested in obtaining a CD copy of the manual, please contact Fran Hollon
at the NYS Education Department
fhollon@mail.nysed.gov
or Kerry Wiley at kwiley@ddpc.state.ny.us
or call DDPC at 1-800-395-3372.
