Youth in Transition
Workgroup has been
committed since its
inception to identifying
and removing gaps within
the system to ensure
that the 8,500 to 9,000
youths with disabilities
between the ages of 14
to 21 who are either
graduating or leaving
the school system, are
aware of and receiving
the necessary
transitioning services
to obtain employment,
while ensuring health
care and supportive
services. Through
workgroups and state
partnerships, we have
developed Informational
and training materials
that can help youth make
a successful transition
from school to work, and
to economic
self-sufficiency.
