This booklet is designated to help parents in California find training, jobs, and services for their learning disabled children. Information is presented on how to represent their children's vocational education and job training needs and prepare them for vocational opportunities. An introductory chapter outlines the importance of working, the capability of handicapped people to become competent workers, and the parents' role in the transition from school to work. Section 2, "Wheel of Transition," addresses six major issues that contribute to the transition process: independent living skills, social skills, career awareness, the individualized education program, vocational education, and work experience. Sections 3 and 4 cover parent and professional responsibilities and parent and child rights according to the Education for All Handicapped Children Act, the California Master Plan for Special Education, and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Also provided are a directory of support groups and resources for parents, tips on looking for a job, a transition check list, and forms for job seeking background information and a 6-year educational/career plan.
