Federal Grant Award Summary

The University Corporation, in consortium with San Francisco State University, received a $430,134 Project Grant from the Office of Postsecondary Education under the Transition Programs for Students with Intellectual Disabilities into Higher Education (TPSID, CFDA 84.407) program. The award, effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026, supports the Bridge California TPSID initiative designed to create or expand high-quality, inclusive comprehensive transition and postsecondary programs for students with intellectual disabilities at California State University, Northridge.

Under this grant, The University Corporation and its consortium partner deliver model demonstration programming focused on academic enrichment, career skills development, and person-centered planning to enhance educational opportunities and career pathways for students with intellectual disabilities. The initiative integrates students with intellectual disabilities into postsecondary education environments while promoting meaningful credentials, sustainable inclusive models, and opportunities for independent living and employment. As a non-profit auxiliary organization affiliated with California State University, Northridge—a Hispanic-Serving Institution—The University Corporation leverages its established capacity in managing federally funded educational and research programs to advance this mission of serving diverse and traditionally underrepresented student populations.
