Seeking Youth and Young Adult Transition Stories September 1st, 2011

The U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Disability Employment Policy is currently working on a publication that is intended to be a complete transition guide as youth and young adults (age 14-25) with disabilities move from high school to post-secondary settings, including but not limited to full-time jobs, vocational training (being an apprentice), service, internships; and junior college and university settings. Since experiences are a great way to learn, they are trying to collect stories from youth and young adults with disabilities about their transitions. This project is open to youth with different types of disabilities, from all backgrounds, and from all across the country!
