The Success, Engagement, Education, Determination (SEED) program was developed through a grant received from the Pennsylvania Developmental Disability Council. Lehigh Carbon Community College will be partnering with Lehigh Valley Center for Independent Living to provide comprehensive follow along services for students with disabilities interested in either an academic or career track program. These are just some of the many opportunities offered through SEED. Programming will begin in July.

The application deadline is April 1. If interested, complete an application at www.LCCC.edu/seed.
