About the Workshop:
Do you have a child in middle school or high school who will need long-term services and support in the community, and for whom traditional paths to college and career may not seem like the best fit? If so, we have a weekend training for you.
This training will help families of students with visual and multiple disabilities and complex access needs, including those who are deafblind.
Together, we will:
• Explore new ideas for planning life after high school.
• Learn how to start a person-centered transition plan.
• Share resources and experiences with other families.
This event will be hands-on and interactive. Families will imagine what a successful adult life could look like for their child and learn how to find and ask for the tools and resources needed to get there.
Registration: $50.00 per Person
Who Can Attend? Adult family members of students who will need life-long support. Professionals may also attend if they work with a participating student or are interested in transition planning. Space is limited. You may register now and pay later.
