[WEBINAR] Transition from School to Adult Life: Using the IEP to Create Success with Johanne Pino
This workshop will address the transition planning and services required for youth with disabilities ages 14-22 and will focus on the transition services districts should provide to prepare youth for employment, independent living, and further education. Using case examples, parents and professionals will learn strategies that can help ensure students receive important transition services required by special education law. The workshop will also provide information about the transition to the adult human service system, including Chapter 688, the state law that helps plan for youth with disabilities after they leave school.
