Presented are the proceedings of two workshop/conferences given during 1974 on the strategies of 2-year colleges in responding to the career education needs of disabled students in New York State. It is noted that a total of 34 New York community colleges and 23 federal, state, and regional institutions sent representatives to at least one of the five conferences.
