Summary:"Comprehensively addressing the challenges of transition, this book provides practical knowledge and tools geared toward real-world educators. It presents clear guidelines for all aspects of team-based transition planning for individuals with various levels of disability, illustrated with vignettes of three secondary students who are followed throughout the book. The authors describe evidence-based practices for conducting assessments and promoting optimal outcomes in the areas of employment, postsecondary education, and independent living. Keys to family involvement, self-determination, interagency collaboration, and problem solving are highlighted. Several reproducible forms can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8 1/2" x 11" size"--
"The purpose of this book is to describe issues, processes, and outcomes in the transition from special education to adulthood for youth with disabilities, with particular attention to (1) evidence-based, research-based, and promising practices in transition; (2) practices that can be implemented in schools and communities to improve post-school outcomes; and (3) methods for involving youth and their families as driving forces in transition"--
