Request for Proposals: UCLA's Tarjan Center looking to fund innovative USA teachers who include students with disabilities in SAGE activities

The Tarjan Center at UCLA and SAGE are looking to fund innovative teachers who include students with disabilities in SAGE activities. The Mitsubishi Electric America Foundation has funded the Tarjan Center at UCLA and Students for the Advancement of Global Entrepreneurship (SAGE) to launch the "Including All Students in Entrepreneur Leadership" Project. As part of this project, we are seeking to fund 4 current or potential SAGE teachers to include students with disabilities in SAGE activities. Each SAGE teacher should work with a disability education professional to ensure that at least six students with disabilities are included in all aspects of the SAGE process: starting a business, participating in day to day operations, holding a designated corporate position, developing the annual report, and participating in the SAGE national tournament. Selected SAGE teachers (and disability partners) will be designated as SAGE-Mitsubishi Inclusion Fellows. Students in selected SAGE teams will be designated as SA E-Mitsubishi Inclusion Ambassadors.
