*/Transition from School to Adult Life: /*
*/Using the IEP to Create Success/*
/A Workshop for Parents and Professionals/
*Tuesday, December 11, 2012*
*7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.*
Meeting Location:* **Hanover High School, (First Floor/Multipurpose
Room)**, *Cedar Street
/This workshop will address transition planning and services required
for youth with disabilities ages 14-22, focusing on both the
transition special education services which prepare youth for
employment, independent living and further education, and mechanisms
to plan for services students may require when they exit special
education and transition to the adult human service system. Through
the use of case examples, families and professionals will learn
strategies that may help students receive important transition
services mandated by special education laws. Parents and professionals
will also gain an understanding of Chapter 688, the federal law that
helps plan for youth with disabilities after they leave school./
