Congratulations to Dr. Meghan Burke, associate professor of Special Education, on being named Fellow of the American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (FAAIDD).
This distinction is a high honor and is presented after review and consideration by a committee of leaders in the Association. Individuals may be nominated for Fellow after they have had at least seven years of continuous membership in AAIDD, participation in the professional and business affairs of the Association, and are judged to have made a meritorious contribution to the field of intellectual disability.
Burke is among a group of nine new fellows who will be honored at a formal ceremony of preferment to Fellow, held at the AAIDD’s 144th Annual Meeting in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in June 2020.
AAIDD promotes progressive policies, sound research, effective practices, and universal human rights for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Founded in 1876, AAIDD is the oldest professional association concerned with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Learn more about the organization at http://www.aaidd.org
