Meaningful Transitions: Skill Development for Low Incidence Populations |
Type |
Webinar |
Description |
Many transition based programs are designed for job skill development for future employment, but what skills are most beneficial for students with more significant disabilities who may not seek employment? This teacher and SLP team provides an overview of the development of a transition oriented program created for students with severe physical and cognitive challenges, along with complex communication needs. With an emphasis on functional communication and self-advocacy, Oakland Meadow’s Transition Adaptation and Skill-development Lab (TASk Lab) provides one-on-one and small group instruction in the following transition skill areas: vocational, communication, leisure, and home. See how the team collaborates to expand the original design of the Lab to provide authentic opportunities for increased independence and self-advocacy for the students they support. The use of video clips, photos, and sample activities will highlight AT and AAC supports being used in both the school and home settings. |
