Dr. John Weathers of the Leadership, Research and Foundations Department of the UCCS College of Education received a $35,000 research grant award February 2010 from the American Educational Research Association.
The project is entitled “A Propensity Score Matching Analysis of the Effects of Inclusive Special Education Services.” With support from the National Science Foundation (NSF), the AERA Grants Program announces its Research Grants competition. The program seeks to stimulate research on U.S. education issues using data from the large-scale, national and international data sets supported by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), NSF, and other federal agencies, and to increase the number of education researchers using these data sets.
The program supports research projects that are quantitative in nature, include the analysis of existing data from NCES, NSF or other federal agencies, and have U.S. education policy relevance.

The UCCS Family Development Center on February 27 hosted a event and dinner for special needs parents called Break Time.
Break Time is a program by The Resource Exchange that offers a night out to parents of children with developmental disabilities. The program had been suspended for more than a year because of lack of funds, but with help from the Pikes Peak United Way, it's back.
Twenty-five children showed up for Saturday’s Break Time, 12 with disabilities and 13 siblings, ranging in age from 20 months to 18 years.
