Abstract	This guide, which was developed for Canadian literacy teachers, contains practical guidelines for including people with intellectual and other disabilities in literacy education. The foreword examines the problems caused by various barriers that have traditionally excluded intellectually disabled individuals from literacy programs, and the introduction outlines the benefits of inclusion. Chapter 1 takes a systematic look at the various literacy programming options available in Canada (community-based volunteer tutor programs; library programs; school-based programs; literacy and adult basic education programs at community colleges; and vocational, job readiness, and workplace literacy programs). Provided in chapter 2 are "snapshots" of inclusive literacy practices in community-based, library, learning center, community college, and workplace programs. The following components of successful programs are explained and illustrated in chapter 3: strong leadership, supportive instructors and tutors, inclusive eligibility criteria and assessments, individualized instruction and use of resources, provision of supports encouraging accessibility, opportunities for tutor training/support, flexible approaches to evaluation, and outreach. Chapter 4 presents a sampling of successful instructional methods, and chapter 5 lists a series of questions and answers regarding tutor competencies and attitudes. Concluding the guide are a discussion of future challenges and directions and a 17-item bibliography. (MN)
