- Role of Agencies in the Transition Process

Lead the transition planning process through the Individualized Education Program (IEP) by focusing on academic instruction, skill development, and preparing students for postsecondary education, training, or employment. Schools coordinate with families and agencies to ensure students are ready for life after graduation. - County Boards of Developmental Disabilities
Provide long-term support and services to help individuals with disabilities build independence, access community resources, and maintain meaningful employment. County boards of developmental disabilities collaborate with schools and Vocational Rehabilitation agencies to align services and ensure continuity beyond high school. - State Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) Agencies
Support students in preparing for and securing competitive, integrated employment. VR counselors help set employment goals, connect students with job training and placement services, and fund support needed for successful employment outcomes.
