Time: 2:00-4:00PM Eastern Standard Time
Participate in a Virtual Forum to discuss challenges to the implementation of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) with colleagues at the federal, state, district and school levels across the nation. Your conversations will inform a small core team's work at a future face-to-face forum as they develop UDL policy recommendations.

The webinar will provide you with background on UDL and start the conversation on issues related to UDL implementation in schools, districts and states.
