Transition Planning

Transition planning is a process used to assist your son or daughter with a disability in moving from the school into adult life.| |It is a cooperative effort between the school, the student, the family and community agencies. Laws require transition planning for all students with a disability, beginning at the age of 16.

Since the transition process often requires future use of community resources and agencies, it is important that they be included early in the transition planning.
