This checklist is designed to help youth and young adults evaluate their readiness for greater independence in everyday life. It encourages individuals to think about important skills related to personal responsibility, communication, self-care, decision-making, education, employment, transportation, and community involvement.
The resource can be used by students, families, educators, and transition teams to identify strengths, areas for growth, and goals for future planning. By promoting self-awareness and independence skills, the checklist helps support successful transitions into adulthood and encourages youth to take an active role in preparing for their future.
