Join us at our Transition Fair for "Going to College with a Disability โ€“ Opportunities and Barriers."

Starting college is a big step. Learn about the benefits and challenges of attending college and the various options available before making this important decision. We will talk about the many options, including inclusive college opportunities, and how these programs determine their acceptance criteria and the support they provide.

Deciding to attend college can be one of the most important decisions that youth can make, and families play an important role in helping with the decision-making process and helping prepare youth to step into their role as decision-makers and college students.
