Student Council for Exceptional Children

Western Michigan University Chapter

The purpose of the Student Council for Exceptional Children (SCEC) at WMU is to provide professional development, networking, and community engagement to students and faculty/staff at WMU interested in working with or supporting children and adults with disabilities. The SCEC members will (1) support the surrounding areas and community of WMU through their advocacy of individuals with disabilities and (2) participate in events and with agencies that support those children and adults and their families.

Membership of SCEC is open to all interested undergraduate and graduate students and faculty/staff at WMU. To join, please visit ExperienceWMU (https://experiencewmu.wmich.edu/) and find the SCEC at WMU!

We have monthly meetings and/or events that may include (1) advocacy, (2) professional development, (3) social activities, and (4) crafts/classroom materials. We would love to have you join us!
