What You Need to Know About Being an Adult with Disabilities: A Handbook for Self-Advocates, Parents, Guardians and Their Loved Ones
Supportive services and legal arrangements are only part of a person’s transition to adulthood. Relationships, school, and housing involve additional perspectives that require coordination and understanding.
The intent of this handbook is to explain some of the terms related to services and supports for people with disabilities, to introduce the process of transitioning from child services to adult services, and to provide guidance on options and resources that may be available to young adults with disabilities.
