Transition No matter how impossible it may seem never underestimate the power of a dream.

Definition A coordinated set of activities for a pupil with educational disabilities, designed within an outcome-oriented process, that promotes movement from school to post-school activities, including post-secondary education, vocational training, integrated employment( including supported employment), continuing and adult education, adult services, independent living, and community participation. New Jersey Special Education Code on Transition ( NJAC 6:28), 1.2, Definition.

My favorite Definition of Transition A change in status from behaving primarily as a student to assuming emergent adult roles in the community. ( deFur, Todd-Allen, & Getzel, 2001)

7 components Employment Living arrangements and community participation Getting around the community Financial independence Making friends Sexuality and self-esteem Having fun

It is law IDEA ( PL 101-476) ensures that all children with a disabilities have related services designed to prepare them for employment and independent living; this should culminate into an IEP/Transition Plan. The transition plan must be incorporated with the IEP when the student is 16.
