Transition Planning
Stories of small collectives of young people and families planning for their last years of high school and their transition to adult life deserve special attention. A person centered transition plan invites people to “Build a New World” of possibilities beyond high school while creating new experiences during school. “Lives of Distinction” tells how lives unfold as a result of individualized supports that enable people to create valued roles in their communities.
