The mission of the National Inclusive Education Research Collaborative (NIERC) is to advance research, scholarship, and innovation in the area of Inclusive Education. Our dedicated team seeks to engage in rigorous research that will continue to glean meaningful and practical information around the multi-faceted components needed for the effective implementation of best practices in Inclusive Education. Our main goal is to bridge the research-to-practice gap and ensure our work directly impacts schools and communities working towards ensuring ALL individuals are valued, included, and supported in reaching their goals.
