Disability Services Case Competition

In response to a decades-long shortage of professionals who support people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) to be included in the community, ANCOR and the ANCOR Foundation have launched the first-ever Disability Services Case Competition. Designed to cultivate solutions to a workforce crisis that is hindering access to opportunities for people with I/DD, the Case Competition is your chance to affect positive social change, build your resume and—for the top three teams—win your share of more than $20,000 in scholarship prizes.

The Case Competition will kick off on January 1, 2023, and proposed solutions are due on February 6, 2023, at 11:59 pm EST.
