Transition from School to Adult Life for Students with Learning Disabilities
Uphold, Nicole M.
Advances in Special Education
Transitioning from school to adult life is a challenging time for students with learning disabilities. Students leave the only support system they have known and enter into a world where they need to be self-advocates. This chapter discusses the transitioning process, including the legal aspect and strategies to assist students to make a successful transition into adulthood.
