Transition Services Liaison Project
The mission of Transition Services Liaison Project (TSLP) is to enable students with disabilities to reach their maximum potential in their transition from high school to the adult world.
TSLP staff members provide support and technical assistance to students, families, and local education agencies seeking information on transition planning.
Overview
Transition services are a coordinated set of activities designed within a results-oriented process for a student with a disability, based on that individual student’s needs while taking into account their strengths, preferences, and interests.
Transition services are focused on improving the academic and functional achievement of the student with a disability in order to facilitate their movement from school to their post-school ‘good life’.
Activities
- Training for students with disabilities, families, schools, Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) Counselors, and adult service agencies on transition and development of transition plans.
- Identifying and obtaining instructional materials for teachers
- Written technical assistance guides and other resources made available for individuals interested in transition
- Initiating linkages for the student and family to adult service agencies and services for post-school success.
