AI Summary

This bill creates the Inclusive Higher Education Act, which establishes the Inclusive Higher Education Grant Program within the Colorado Department of Higher Education. The program provides grants to state institutions of higher education to establish or expand inclusive higher education programs for students with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The bill outlines the required components of these programs, such as allowing students to take for-credit or audit courses, integrate socially and academically, receive peer mentoring, and develop independent living skills. The bill also requires annual evaluations and reporting on the programs' performance and outcomes. The General Assembly is appropriating $450,000 annually for five years to fund the grant program.
