BCIU Information
Please take a moment to watch these informative – and compelling – stories from the Bucks County Intermediate Unit #22.
First there is Abby’s Story, one family’s journey with the IU to provide an enriching education for their daughter that addressed her individual needs.
Then, learn about how the Bucks County IU has partnered with the County of Bucks, Office of Vocational Rehabilitation and area school districts to provide a high school work transition program for students with disabilities to gain marketable and transferable work skills, called Project SEARCH.
Both of these videos illustrate some of the powerful ways the Bucks County IU advocates for children of all abilities, every single day.
Thank you!
