This transition guide focuses on the important role parents and caregivers play in helping students with disabilities prepare for adulthood and life after high school. It provides guidance on supporting transition planning related to education, employment, independence, self-advocacy, and community involvement while encouraging youth to take an active role in planning their future.
The resource helps families better understand how to work collaboratively with schools, support teams, and community agencies throughout the transition process. By promoting communication, encouragement, and family involvement, the guide supports students in building confidence, developing life skills, and preparing for successful adult outcomes.
