Navigating Youth to Adulthood: A Compilation of Projects and Activities Regarding Youth Transition

Transition can be defined as a continuing process toward independent adulthood. This paper illustrates the time line and products developed to foster improvements in the transition process for students with disabilities as partial fulfillment for the WV Real Choice Systems Change grant. In February 2005, an initial summit was held on youth transition to accurately assess the stance of educators, other professionals and parents. The results of this and future meetings can be found in this report.
