Transition Services at United Local
Planning a child’s transition from adolescence to adult life is one of the most important activities that will be done to prepare that child for a successful future. In Ohio, transition planning begins when a child with a disability is 14 years of age or earlier if needed.
Through the transition planning process, families and students are introduced to resources that may be important as students move from school to post school activities. Transition services are coordinated by IEP team members to assist families and students in developing a transition plan that will move students toward their postsecondary education, employment and independent living/community integration goals.
Transition services include:
Consultative services for future planning
Job training internship opportunities
Career & technical education exploration
Postsecondary programming exploration
Agency referral assistance
